About
Glass: In Modern Architecture (1969) by Arthur Korn examines the transformative role of glass in twentieth-century architecture. Korn explores how advances in technology and materials enabled architects to integrate transparency, light, and structural innovation into their designs, reshaping the relationship between interior and exterior space. The book highlights landmark projects from the International Style, including works by Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, and the Bauhaus, demonstrating glass as both functional and expressive. Richly illustrated with photographs and drawings, Korn’s analysis situates glass as a symbol of modernity, emphasizing its aesthetic, structural, and social significance in redefining architectural form and experience.
