Modernist architects of the early and mid-twentieth century were politically idealistic. Their architecture expressed their faith that modernization and progress would bring a better world.

Today's avant-gardist architects congratulate themselves on how cutting-edge their buildings are. But in reality, they are not responding to the needs of our time in the way that the early modernists responded to the needs of the last century.

In architecture, the cultural change has not occurred yet. Mainstream culture still promotes avant-gardist architecture that focuses on flashy new technology, rather than architecture that subordinates technology to human values.
