y one in London, it was made up of iron and glass materials. William Le Baron Jenney and Louis Sullivan created the tall steel skyscraper in Chicago around eighteen ninety.
There was also the development of sophisticated air conditioning and heating systems which allowed modern architecture to spread from temperate climates to extremely varied weather conditions. I think that the technological advances were a very key element in the creation of the modern era. Without those new building materials they would be still using the same old materials and not be able to create new looks to their buildings.
There were two famous architects that I thought were the most significant in contributing to the development of modern architecture. Louis Sullivan designed the Wainwright building which was built in eighteen ninety in St. Louis, Missouri. This building revolutionized American architecture. It was unornamented, he used red bricks, and horizontal panels to decorate, and the top story has round windows and terra cotta leaf scrolls. '...the Wainwright Building has a U-shaped plan that provides an interior light well for the illumination of inside offices. The ground floor, designed to house shops, had a wide plate-glass window for the display of merchandise. The second story, or mezzanine, also features large windows for the illumination of the shop offices.' 'This illustrates Sullivan's philosophy of functionalism, summed up in his famous motto, 'Form follows function,' which holds that the function of a building should dictate its design.' Stokstad (pg. 798). This building became a prototype for modern day office buildings. Sullivan was most notable for his contributions in creating the tall commercial office buildings. He emphasized the vertical rise, which was able to be done by using steel frame construction and light weight materials like terra cotta. Sullivan inspired many other architects by using his ideas. Frank Lloyd Wright was another famous architect who even though created his own works, would also imitate Sullivan's style. Wright became a legend; he was one of the most talented architects of the twentieth century. As well as being an architect, he was also an interior designer, writer, and educator. Wright promoted organic architecture and created many different types of buildings, like offices, churches, schools, skyscrapers, hotels, and museums. What was important to him was to create a relationship between the site and the building and the needs of the client. Wright was known for serving as both architect and art dealer for his clients. He was well known for manipulating interior space in residential and public buildings. Wright also had a desire to place his occupants close to natural surroundings, his most famous residence, Fallingwater was created for Mr. and Mrs. Edgar J. Kaufmann Sr. is located in Bear Run Pennsylvania, it was built in nineteen thirty four to nineteen thirty seven. The Fallingwater residence has a stream and waterfall running under part of the building, and used limestone for all the verticals. He also used Pyrex glass for his windows to allow for interaction and viewing the outdoors while still protecting the person from the outdoor elements. I think that without his style and outlook on space for the people using the building space then we would not have some buildings the way they are now, I think that space is a big attraction for people when they are looking to bu
