Inside:
"A neighbourhood whole is often greater than the sum of its parts, and whilst the architecture and buildings are key components in creating a neighbourhood, it is the inhabitants that create atmosphere, community and a sense of place."
As recent disruptive and violent events erupt on our streets, we thought that the above paragraph, found in the editorial of the new Modernist, was worth highlighting.
Inside this new issue - architecture designed for a new and democratic society in Berlin, Basil Spence's Modernist Claremont Court housing scheme in Edinburgh, the Midmay Club, a rare example of a large, purpose-built metropolitan club, based in Hackney, utopian city planning in the suburbs of Lyon, and the celebrated Parkleys estate, the first Span Estate by Eric Lyons/Span Developments (1954-59) in the London Borough of Richmond.
Expect:
The Modernist is a quarterly publication about architecture and design in the 20th Century (fact). It is also a passionate, witty, academic, and thought-provoking read (another fact).
