255 History Of The Designed Environment III, Modern (1750 To Present) (3)

An overview of developments in architectural, urban, land and interior design which have shaped the physical environment of the Western world during the Modern period. Issues to be explored include renewed interest in archaeology during the eighteenth century, shifts in patronage, the impact of new industrial materials and techniques, demands for an array of new building types, and dilemmas of expression throughout the modern era. Our concerns will broaden and become more global in scope when we examine the twentieth century. Prerequisite: None.
