{"product_id":"the-new-space-christopher-long-9780300218282","title":"The New Space: Movement and Experience in Viennese Modern Architecture","description":"Scholars have long stressed the problem of ornament and expression when considering Viennese modernism. By the first decade of the 20th century, however, the avant-garde had shifted its focus from the surface to the interior. Adolf Loos (1870-1933), together with Josef Frank (1885-1967) and Oskar Strnad (1879-1935), led this generation of architects to interpret modernism through culture and lifestyle. They were interested in the experience of architectural space: how it could be navigated, inhabited, and designed to reflect the modern way of life while also offering respite from it. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe New Space\u003c\/i\u003e traces the theoretical conversation about space carried out in the writings and built works of Loos, Frank, and Strnad over four decades. The three ultimately explored what Le Corbusier would later--independently--term the architectural promenade. Lavishly illustrated with new photography and architectural plans, this important book enhances our understanding of the development of modernism and of architectural theory and practice. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher Long\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0300218281\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780300218282\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Yale University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/22\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.70h x 9.50w x 0.90d","brand":"Christopher Long","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48064820478207,"sku":"9780300218282","price":83.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a057f9fe-2116-4dd4-ab4b-05212796f44b.jpg?v=1768671248","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-new-space-christopher-long-9780300218282","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
