Modernist Architectural Styles
Modernist architectural styles refer to a design movement that emerged in the early 20th century, characterized by a focus on simplicity, functionality, and the use of new materials such as concrete, steel, and glass. This style often features clean lines, geometric shapes, and an emphasis on open floor plans and natural light. Modernist architects sought to break away from traditional architectural conventions and create buildings that reflected the ideals of the modern age. Key figures associated with this movement include Le Corbusier, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, and Frank Lloyd Wright.
