International Style Architecture

• Architects who worked in the International Style wanted to break with architectural tradition and design simple, unornamented buildings. The most commonly used materials are glass, steel and concrete; floor plans were functional and logical. The style became most manifest in the design of skyscrapers.

• Detractors of the International style claim that its stark, uncompromisingly rectangular geometry is dehumanising. Le Corbusier once described buildings as "machines for living.” Since the early 1980s many architects have deliberately sought to move away from strictly geometrical designs.

• “The ideals of the style are commonly summed up in four slogans: ornament is a crime, truth to materials, form follows function, and Le Corbusier's description of houses as "machines for living"
