From Bauhaus to Brutalism: Modern Architecture

Eleanor Schrader

The post–World War I era saw a dramatic shift away from

traditional 19th century architecture, as architects, designers,

and social thinkers embraced modern aesthetics, new

materials, and evolving societal needs. Each architectural

movement responded to social and political changes,

influencing both residential and commercial structures.

This course explores the inspirations and innovations behind

major architectural styles, including the Bauhaus, the

International Style, Art Deco, Midcentury Modernism, and

Postmodernism. Through these movements, we will examine

how architecture has continually adapted to shape and reflect

the built environment.
