In the Netherlands, of all places - for decades a bastion of modern and supermodern architecture - a kind of 'unmodern' architecture emerged in the 1990s and went on to great success. In this book, Hans Ibelings analyses unmodern architecture from a number of angles: as an atypical, Dutch phenomenon; as an international movement; as an intellectual response to the limitations of modernism in its various forms; and as a commercial exercise in the niche marketing of nostalgic images. In examining unmodern architecture as an international, as well as a historical, phenomenon, Ibelings answers the question of what unmodern architecture has to offer society in the twenty-first century.
