To celebrate the release of the second hardcover book from The Modern House, Ornament is Crime, we partnered with the iconic Isokon Gallery for a mid-summer soiree with our subscribers.

Written by The Modern House founders Matt Gibberd and Albert Hill, the new title is a visual manifesto that offers a celebration and thought-provoking reappraisal of modernist architecture.

Iconic works by Le Corbusier, Mies van der Rohe and Walter Gropius are examined alongside some of the best contemporary architects of the twenty-first century, arguing for a continuous progression of the movement from its roots through to the present day.
