This book examines the relationship between the modernist architecture of the 1920s and 1930s and that era's preocupation with health, cleanliness, fresh air and sunshine, exploring how notions of the 'clean machine' and the hygienist movement inspired the pure geometric forms and sparkling surfaces of early modernist buildings.
