HAA 1907 Architecture and the City in Central Europe: 19th and 20th Centuries

(offered infrequently)

This course will examine the transformation of Vienna in the 19th century and the development of a distinctive school of architectural thought that produced some of the principal theorists connected with the emergence of modernism in the early 20th century. The dissemination and adaptation of the Viennese model will be considered in relation to projects undertaken in two provincial capitals – Zagreb and Ljubljana – where architects trained in Vienna and other European centers applied ideas developed in the capital to the periphery.
