This thoroughly illustrated classic study traces the history of the world-famous Chicago school of architecture from its beginnings with the functional innovations of William Le Baron Jenney and others to their imaginative development by Louis Sullivan and Frank Lloyd Wright. The Chicago School of Architecture places the Chicago school in its historical setting, showing it at once to be the culmination of an iron and concrete construction and the chief pioneer in the evolution of modern architecture. It also assesses the achievements of the school in terms of the economic, social, and cultural growth of Chicago at the turn of the century, and it shows the ultimate meaning of the Chicago work for contemporary architecture. "A major contribution [by] one of the world's master-historians of building technique."—Reyner Banham, Arts Magazine "A rich, organized record of the distinguished architecture with which Chicago lives and influences the world."—Ruth Moore, Chicago Sun-Times

The birth of the skyscraper in Chicago in the mid-1880s introduced a new direction for city architecture: upwards. But how-and why- was it that Chicago set the standard for high-rise buildings, not only across the USA but all over the world? Rolf Achilles here introduces the style of the First Chicago School from 1880 to 1910, explaining the innovative use of iron frames for strength, height and openness, and the ubiquity of gridded window arrangements. With reference to such famous architects as William Le Baron Jenny and Frank Lloyd Wright, and colorful pictures of, among many others, the Reliance, Brooks and Marquette buildings, this book is a fascinating exploration of the structures that helped to give Chicago its identity, and the world a new way of building.

Among the pioneers who have exerted a crucial influence on architecture in the twentieth century, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, a German-American, was one of the most prominent. His work has been recognized and described in detail by well-known authors. This book portrays his pioneering educational work as head of the Department of Technology (IT) in Chicago during the period 1938-1959 and also surveys the work of his successors as architects and teachers. Based on documentary material (theory-master-pupil), the curriculum at IIT and at the Second Chicago School of Architecture, the book exemplifies the principles and teaching of Mies van der Rohe. It is addressed to architects, engineers, and students, to those who are working in construction, and to everyone who is interested in a systematic presentation of the principles of steel-and-glass architecture. In the architecture-conscious city of Chicago, Mies and his pupils could experiment and create a number of influential examples. His school brought a fresh impetus to architecture and made a genuine contribution to the influences shaping modern construction. In this lost and restless age,with its formalistic trends, testimonies like these might well initiate new departures in our thinking. -- from book cover.
