Hut Pavilion Shrine: Architectural Archetypes in Mid-Century Modernism

　　Hut Pavilion Shrine examines the crossroads of modernism and the archetypal, and critiques its buildings and theory, It concentrates on one particularly important and omnipresent type, the pavilion - a type which was the basis of major work by several eminent architects. While focusing primarily on the architecture culture of the United States, it also includes the work of British, European Team X, and Scandinavian designers and writers. The book ties together the threads in mid-century architectural theory and discusses how these concerns outlived the mid-century moment, and in the designs and writings of Aldo Rossi and others they paved the way for Post-Modernism.
