All elevated or lowly undertakings some would argue start with curiosity, the questions presents itself like a hungry belly grumbling with a question of why, how or more appropriately “how idiotic, why?” Three chapters into “Modern Architecture,” you encounter an author who does not give much concern for Frank Lloyd Wright— and he is presented in brief.

Kenneth Frampton's long-awaited follow-up to his classic A Critical History of Modern Architecture is certain to influence any future debate on the evolution of modern architecture. Studies in Tectonic Culture is nothing less than a rethinking of the entire modern architectural tradition. The notion of tectonics as employed by Frampton—the focus on architecture as a constructional craft—constitutes a direct challenge to current mainstream thinking on the artistic limits of postmodernism.

It was in this climate that Frampton wrote Modern Architecture: A Critical History that was first published in 1980, though it was begun in 1970. Following from this well-regarded history text Frampton’s next major work was his seminal essay, Toward a Critical Regionalism: Six Points for an Architecture of Revolution which definitely 3.

Thus if pages where love then its denied to Frank Lloyd Wright and maybe it is given to another in chapter thirteen. This chapter is long, tedious and a most seductive rant on The Glass Chain: European Architectural Expressionism 1910-25.Some phrases that linger are-inscribed on the glass dome by Scheerbart- “Light wants crystal, glass brings a new era and building in brick only does us harm” is literary silver on the page (Frampton 116) and inspirational to the reader. This chapter delineates the reverence for the delta from darkness to light in Modern Architecture.

Chapters are rampant and this text is the equivalent of the student bible in Art, Design and Architecture though birthed in 1980 it still has sway, gives lengthy consideration to globalization and remains a testament to Modern Architecture. This book is a stupendous read and survived many clandestine sessions in my black Tony Burch tote, I strongly recommended this book.

Frampton studied architecture at Guildford School of Art and the Architectural Association School of Architecture, London. Subsequently he worked in Israel, with Middlesex County Council and Douglas Stephen and Partners (1961–66), during which time he was also a visiting tutor at the Royal College of Art (1961–64), tutor at the Architectural Association (1961–63) and Technical Editor of the journal Architectural Design (AD) (1962–65). Frampton has also taught at Princeton University (1966–71) and the Bartlett School of Architecture, London, (1980). He has been a member of the faculty at Columbia University since 1972, and that same year he became a fellow of the Institute for Architecture and Urban Studies in New York - (whose members also included Peter Eisenman, Manfredo Tafuri and Rem Koolhaas) - and a co-founding editor of its magazine Oppositions. Frampton is a permanent resident of the USA. Frampton is well known for his writing on twentieth-century architecture.

His books include Modern Architecture: A Critical History (1980; revised 1985, 1992 and 2007) and Studies in Tectonic Culture (1995). Frampton achieved great prominence (and influence) in architectural education with his essay 'Towards a Critical Regionalism' (1983) — though the term had already been coined by Alexander Tzonis and Liliane Lefaivre. Also, Frampton's essay was included in a book The Anti-Aesthetic. Essays on Postmodern Culture, edited by Hal Foster, though Frampton is critical of postmodernism. Frampton's own position attempts to defend a version of modernism that looks to either critical regionalism or a 'momentary' understanding of the autonomy of architectural practice in terms of its own concerns with form and tectonics which cannot be reduced to economics (whilst conversely retaining a Leftist viewpoint regarding the social responsibility of architecture).

In 2002 a collection of Frampton's writings over a period of 35 years was collated and published under the title Labour, Work and Architecture.
