Description

The book showcases new and recent work by John Jennifer Marx and Form4, from private residences to Silicon Valley masterplans In Second-Century Modernism, John Jennifer Marx advocates for a fundamental change in the way architects design, with the intention of re-balancing Modernism toward an architecture of emotional abundance, rather than its current singular focus on an architecture of ideas and abstraction It could be said that Walter Gropius laid the cornerstone of modern architecture in 1919 by founding the Bauhaus. As a result, modern architecture is now over 100 years old. This first century of modernism has come to a close with a mixed review. Enthusiasm for its achievements goes hand in hand with a discontent about a sizeable portion of its outcome, as well as its effect on the natural and built environments. The most vocal supporters of these modernist ideals crafted epic claims that modernism was bound to deliver progressive and humane environments. Alas, the follow through of those promises was uneven at best. If the first century of modernism can be considered an architecture of abstraction and ideas, then what might we design if we turn our attention, in this second century of modernism, to an architecture of emotional abundance? Second-Century Modernism creates an architecture of richness and community by placing a higher priority on emotional meaning, through a shift in the design process that balances the rational with the intuitive, and a Less + More approach to expanding the range of cultural values we can inclusively balance in our environments.
