This groundbreaking book takes a fresh look at the new architecture which appeared across Europe and North America in the first half of the 20th century. Iconic buildings such as the Bauhaus at Dessau, the Villa Savoye on the outskirts of Paris, the Penguin Pool at London Zoo, and the Zonnestraal Sanatorium in The Netherlands remain modern not only as monuments to past utopias but also as a focus for today's debates on the role of contemporary architecture in the pursuit of 'healthy living'. Illustrated with many unusual photographs, some that capture the buildings in their early states, Light, Air and Openness is an original and refreshing reinterpretation of the modern movement in architecture and design.
