If, one day, for some mysterious reason, all the buildings, settlements, suburbs and structures built after 1945 – especially those commonly called “modern” –
vanished from the face of the earth, would we mourn their loss? Would the disappearance of prefabricated tower blocks, mass housing estates, commercial strips,
business parks, modular production halls, university campuses, schools, and new towns, damage the identity of our favorite cities and landscapes?
