“Modernism is a philosophy that creates better living through design.” - William Krisel
Today’s architecture is influenced by ‘style’ and we all know that style comes and goes.
Mid-Century Modern Architecture is the same today as it was in the 1950s because it is not a style and is based on solid principles of design and human needs, along with functionalism, respect for the environment, and solving the basic human desires for livability.
MCM is capable of enfolding and including new technology and still maintaining the basics of MCM.
New energy standards easily fit into MCM.
New materials that were not available before also are easily enfolded in MCM.
Midcentury modernism is a living concept.
It will be applicable forever.
