520 8  In 2006, architecture and design curator Adam Stech 
       embarked on a photographic project to document the best 
       Modernist architecture around the globe. More than thirty 
       countries and more than a decade later, the fruits of that
       monumental project are gathered in this impressive 
       collection covering nearly a century of architectural 
       history. Driven by a passion for rediscovering forgotten 
       or lesser known architectural treasures of Modernism, 
       Stech took thousands of diverse photographs of exteriors 
       and interiors. This survey features often overlooked 
       details and hidden projects that Stech helps bring to 
       light. His brief commentary on each featured building 
       reveals insights into his vast collection of images that 
       includes treasures of Italian Modernism, American mid-
       century classics, South American Art Deco, Belgian organic
       architecture, French Brutalism, forgotten Australian 
       modern houses, and much more. This expansive and inspiring
       book is the definitive guide to architecture in the 20th 
       century in all its different forms and tendencies from its
       strict rationalist to flamboyant decorative styles
