Rationalist Traces
Modern European architecture has been characterised by a strong undercurrent of rationalist thought.

Since its origins during the period of Enlightenment, Rationalism has evolved over the course of time, responding to changes in creative, intellectual and political thought. In this comprehensive study, the nature of twentieth century Rationalism is given detailed consideration as the progression of the movement is traced from the thirties through to Neo-Rationalism and the present day. The study is organised clearly into sections to facilitate understanding of the movement's developments this century.

The work of architects no longer alive today has been redrawn with extreme care to illuminate the original concept and meaning of these projects.
