A lamentation on the state of modernist, international style architecture. In this long-form architectural screed in essay form, Wolfe takes aim at celebrated figures in the modernist movement—most notably Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, and Bauhaus founder Walter Gropius—and examines the reasons for their rise and continuing acclaim.

Review of 'From Bauhaus to Our House' on 'Goodreads'

1 star

If I, someone who has very little knowledge of anything related to architecture, can spot a distinct lack of argumentation in a work written in an attempt at critiquing certain movements within architecture, then the failure is rather not subtle and it merely proves that the author is unqualified to have an opinion, still less write a book on the subject.
