Millennium Moderne |
| A new popular retro style for the current boom. It
borrows heavily from Art Deco
and Constructivist architecture, and it is influenced by the early
20th century Dutch architecture of De Stil (for example, Mondrian art and
the Rietfeld House). When done well, and in its earlier proponents, it was very exciting. It has been abused in a number of cases, needless to say. It is characterised by the use of flat and folding planes, light grey, charcoal grey and bright white. One of its main early developers were the Sydney firm Allan, Jack and Cottier. |
