Description
This assignment have two parts and I’m able to provide photos as well.part 1 In a text of 400 to 500 words, accompanied by two captioned images (of your choice), answer the following prompt:How is a house/apartment like a machine? How is it not like a machine?In your response:Describe two buildings completed between 1920 and 1950Incorporate one quote from class readingsPlease cite the source of your quote, including page numbers, along with any information and ideas that are not common knowledge or easily verifiable.Include your text and images in a PDF or Word file uploaded to Blackboard.Part 2This assignment asks you to connect the architectural characteristics of specific buildings we’ve looked at in class to the wider context of Chicago after the Second World War. Please respond to the following prompt:The Farnsworth House and the Cabrini-Green towers both have roots in architectural modernism. The two projects share certain qualities—formal, material, technological—but are obviously very different in other respects. What do you think the coexistence of these two versions of modernist housing says about living in Chicago in the middle of the twentieth century?In your response, please make sure to include at least two observations of formal or organizational decisions for both Farnsworth House and Cabrini-Green that contribute to each project’s architectural approach. You must also acknowledge at least one positive aspect of each project—even if that is limited to the project’s conception, and not how its story played out.These responses should be slightly longer than previous assignments: 500 to 750 words. Please include two images, with captions, that illustrate something you are talking about in the text.
