HIDDEN MODERNISM | Mapping the Hidden Modernist Heritage is a cultural initiative with a significant research component, supported by the Romanian Order of Architects, from the Architectural Stamp Duty. The project undertakes a pilot study to create a digital Atlas of Romanian modernist architecture, encompassing an exhaustive mapping of modernist buildings. These range from Bauhaus to moderate Art Deco modernism, including various local adaptations of this movement.
This project aims to unveil the yet undiscovered heritage of local modernist architecture and contextualize it with the works of acclaimed architects who have made significant contributions to local architecture. The atlas essentially serves as a monograph of the local modernist heritage, interpreted alongside local and national architectural models.
HIDDEN MODERNISM | Mapping the Hidden Modernist Heritage is a cultural project supported by the Romanian Order of Architects, from the Architectural Stamp Duty and by OAR Bucharest.
