Postmodern Architecture. Less is a Bore

This unprecedented book takes its subtitle from Postmodernist icon Robert Venturi`s spirited response to Mies van der Rohe`s dictum that`less is more`. One of the 20th century`s most controversial styles, Postmodernism began in the 1970s, reached a fever pitch of eclectic non-conformity in the 1980s and 90s, and after nearly 40 years is now enjoying a newfound popularity. Postmodern Architecture showcases examples of the movement in a rainbow of hues and forms from around the globe.
