From the Regional to the Universal and Back
Ivan Juras
Abstract
Since modern and post-modern architecture were international styles that neglected the genius loci, some architects wanted to define local identity by turning to the architectural heritage. This process came to stronger expression during the last 30 years during which regionalism was more or less successfully used. Sometimes it was expressed explicitly, at other times reflexively, until the appearance of deconstruction, which showed no interest in it at all.
