The technologies that created International Design buildings potential additionally allowed for the Glass Box. It is amusing, as I had been poking around on the web to read more about glass box structure, I I stumbled upon a Time Magazine article that noted a current A.I.A. convention had declared that after thirty years, the glass box tendency was formally over. This post was from 1962. In this article, one architects calls they are going to remove in the glass box and “go straight back to the strong mass.” He was surely right in forecasting the short term; architects like Louis Kahn and Paul Rudolph were previously showing off the things they could do with concrete and a a more recent technology, and in the past, Brutalism was the huge trend.
Yet, in the future, glass box structure has survived and demonstrated that it had been much higher than the usual tendency, and glass box structures have definitely held their appeal a lot more successfully than a few of the horrific urban renewal concrete jungle jobs like Boston’s Town Corridor.
Fortunate for us, Philip Johnson’s Glass House in New Canaan Connecticut is now open to people, and Mies van der Rohe’s Farnsworth Home is on the mend after serious floods awhile back. Now, both of these icons continue to affect design. Seemingly, less is more.
