Description

Designing UNESCO is the first comprehensive monograph examining the genesis, construction and reception of UNESCO's Paris headquarters, tracing its development from conception in 1950 through inauguration in 1958. This scholarly work by Routledge explores how UNESCO's permanent seat represents a unique convergence of modernist practices within twentieth-century international politics, art, architecture and criticism. Drawing on extensive unpublished archival materials, the book provides detailed insight into the complex political, artistic and architectural negotiations that shaped one of the twentieth century's most significant international institutions. Essential reading for scholars, architects, historians and anyone interested in how design and diplomacy intersect in shaping cultural institutions.
