MODERN ARCHITECTURE

The Modern Era of t he 20th century holds the most Modern Perspectives in design of Architects all over the world. The use of simplified forms and ornaments make this era a blank slate for Artists and Architects to express art especially after the Second World War.

This style was famous for stressing out function rather than unimportant ornaments in design.
