The rise and fall of the International Congress of Modern Architects and what all they achieved in almost three decades of existence.
In 1933, a ship was traveling across the Mediterranean. Its destination? Athens. On this ship were some of the most powerful architects in Europe, and they had gathered there to change Architecture & Urban Design across the continent. This elite group of architects dictated how design should be practiced in the 20th century. They are the reason we have minimum standards for the design of homes. And they also created the holy grail of urbanism, one that would define the architecture & planning of industrial cities for years to come. So why have you never heard of them? It might be because this group was riddled with politics, power plays and acts of persuasion, and in the end, it became its own undoing. This is the story of how a group of designers came together to change the world, and guess what they did, but was it for the better? Never before had the world seen such a powerful group of architects, and maybe nothing parallels it even to this day. But was it all a facade, maybe one that became evident on that Ship. Today on Blessedarch we are looking at the history of the one of the most powerful groups of designers, this is the story of the International Congresses of Modern Architects.

Honestly, I really appreciate this video. It clearly shows how in depth research has been put up by you! CIAM is was an EVENT in Archtectural History globally. Unfortunately, many architects are not aware about it, even though each and every one has used the work established as a result of this.

These documentaries are great. Thanks. I was an architectural student At Cornell from 1967-1972. One year, the University invited members of Team X, which was more accurately called “Team Ten”. I’ll need to do some research on their history to see if they were the same folks as the group at CIAM. They included many European luminaries, very loosely related. I was not aware of their CIAM connection, possibly because during that year my personal studies were only peripheral to the Team 10 studio. Thanks for your efforts.

I just looked up Team 10 on Wikipedia. They were your Team X. Here’s a bit from Wikipedia: “Team 10 had a fluid membership yet a core group actively organized the various meetings, which consisted of Alison and Peter Smithson, Jaap Bakema, Aldo van Eyck, Georges Candilis, Shadrach Woods, and Giancarlo De Carlo.[1] Other members included Ralph Erskine, Daniel van Ginkel, Pancho Guedes, Geir Grung, Oskar Hansen, Reima Pietilä, Charles Polonyi, Brian Richards, Jerzy Sołtan, Oswald Mathias Ungers, John Voelcker, and Stefan Wewerka.[1]” O. M. Ungers was Chatman of Cornell’s Department of Architecture. The lectures by the Team 10 members were great.

Modern architecture proposal had a lot to do with the dire effects of war, solving that with functionality was a big necessity thus forgetting about beauty and expressionism. Modern architecture became ugly. That’s why people nowadays relate beautiful architecture only with the past. With the new tools we have, we ought to create a beautiful and expressionist architecture once again.

The problem with celebrity status architects is that their influence becomes dogmatic (Le Corbusier). It feels like the consensus around architecture today is more about the ego of the artist rather than the occupants and society at large. Throw in politics and capitalism and people are no longer a part of the equation at all. Modern urban planning and architecture has made us more distant as a society and I hope that paradigm shifts in favour of the people (eventually lol).

The dogmatism of Charles Edouard Jeanneret should be celebrated. Egoism is only a side story. The triumphs of Le Corbusier led to an awakening of modernism, which continues to this day. Monsieur is the father of existential minimalism.

Urban planning issues and theories are in flux at this particular point in time. The need for innovative solutions is even more important when faced with climate change, political turmoil and the re-definition of the City, in light of the new technological evolution of AI. Travel...is no longer the driving force of access and the pattern of 'a living city'. New models will surely adapt themselves to the economic challenge of reduced resources. We must project ourselves into the future...to understand the options before us. Thanks for your comprehensive research and discussions ...'the Future' awaits our ideas...and inspirations.

I really dislike their approach to urban planning. The separation of spaces, with different functions, is really harmful, you don't need a shopping district, a living district etc. A district for healthy industry is justifiable, but mixed use neighborhoods are way more practical for every day life. In addition, their focus on cars and car centric infrastructure, instead of trains and walkable neighborhoods, really destroyed a healthy and sustainable way of life.

I loved it .. this documentary opened up somuch debates and perspectives in this already complex work or ideas .. I think modernism was and is an era which created this shift in paradime and after that everything became subjective.. from making the walls in brick,bamboo , concrete or steel all approaches are backed by strong individual ideas ... I think is how it actually should be, because this is what brings diversity in the work and culture .

Without question a very complex series of both historic and contemporary events with unfortunately no clear pathway or resolution. Much of what was discussioned and argued at the inception of CIAM is still relevent today. Are we as architects and city planners any more informed or knowledgable than before or after the disasterous events of WW2? Yes and no! I leave it to a younger generation of city planners to decide how to proceed and hopefully move forward in this electronic age.
