EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: A Modernist Vision in Whipsnade: A Pair of Photographs Revealing the Innovative Design of Lubetkin and Tecton's 1930s Bungalow 2. In this evocative pair of photographs, we are transported back in time to the picturesque village of Whipsnade in Bedfordshire, England, circa 1937. The images showcase a groundbreaking modernist bungalow, designed by the visionary architectural partnership of Berthold Romanovich Lubetkin and Tecton. 3. The first photograph presents a general view of the single-storey dwelling, revealing its sleek, unadorned facade. The minimalist design, with its horizontal lines and open floor plan, reflects the architects' commitment to functionalism and their belief that architecture should serve the needs of its inhabitants. The use of natural materials, such as brick and timber, adds to the building's organic appeal. 4. The second photograph, a bird's eye view, offers a unique perspective, revealing the intricacies of the design. The layout of the house, with its interconnected living spaces and open-plan kitchen, is designed to encourage a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living. The roof terrace, a distinctive feature of the design, offers a private retreat, providing a perfect vantage point to enjoy the surrounding countryside. 5. Lubetkin and Tecton, a pioneering architectural practice, were at the forefront of the modernist movement in Britain. Their innovative designs, characterized by their functionalist approach and use of modern materials, challenged the traditional architectural norms of the time. The Whipsnade bungalow, with its bold, contemporary aesthetic, stands as a testament to their vision and ingenuity. 6. These captivating photographs, part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offer a rare glimpse into the past, providing us with a fascinating insight into the world of modernist architecture and the groundbreaking work of Lubetkin and Tecton.
