In 2006, architectural designer and curator Adam Stech embarked on
a photographic project to document the best Modernist architecture
around the globe. Twenty-five countries and more than a decade
later, the fruits of that monumental project are gathered in this
impressive collection covering nearly a century of architectural
history. Driven by a passion for rediscovering forgotten or lesser
known architectural treasures of Modernism, Stech took thousands of
diverse photographs of exteriors and interiors.This survey features
often overlooked details that Stech helps bring to light. Examples
of seating, storage, tables, handrails, lighting, doors, windows,
fireplaces, and other decorative or functional elements illustrate
how architects imbued every aspect of a building with Modernist
ideals. Stech's brief personal commentary reveals insights into his
photography such as capturing Le Corbusier's bold use of primary
colours, the California vibe of an Albert Frey house, or the
over-the-top elegance of Togo Murano's Grand Prince Hotel.Expansive
and inspiring, this is destined to become the definitive guide to
20th-century Modernism.
