Towards A New Architecture

Aman of the eighteenth century, plunged suddenly into our civilkation, might well have the impression of something akin to a nightmare. 

A man of the ‘nineties, looking at much of modern European painting, might well have the impression of something akin to a nightmare.

A man of to-day, reading this book, may have the impression of something akin to a nightmare.

Many of our most cherished ideas in regard to the “ Englishman’s castle “—the lichened tiled roof, the gabled house, patina—are treated as toys to be discarded, and we are offered instead human warrens of sixty storeys, the concrete house hard and clean, fittings as coldly efficient as those of a ship’s cabin or of a motor-car, and the standarked products of mass production throughout. 

We need not be unduly alarmed.

All the inventions that go to make up our modern civilkation, so far as it has gone, have awakened the same terrors. The railway, it was prophesied, would ruin the countryside, the motor-car the roads, and the airplane the upper air.
