Sight Unseen presents The Modernist Travel Guide, a pocket-sized reference book written and photographed by Adam Stech, featuring nearly 400 of his favorite examples of modernist architecture in 30 major cities around the world. Drawing on Stech's extensive archive of 150,000 photographs documenting more than 6,000 buildings and interiors in 40 countries - shared over the years to his popular Instagram account @okolo_architecture - the guide is set to be an indispensable travel companion for design lovers everywhere, offering the backstories, addresses, and accessibility details for iconic homes and buildings as well as unknown hidden gems. The Modernist Travel Guide features architectural gems dating from the 1920s to the 1990s, in cities including San Francisco, Paris, Prague, Brussels, Tokyo, Sao Paolo, Milan, and more. Highlights include an amorphic, reinforced-concrete tower in Berlin, built to house Einstein's research into relativity; a 1950s-era mural-lined apartment lobby in Rome; a Copenhagen church whose brick Expressionist façade mimics the shape of an organ; and a Walter Gropius-designed glass-brick London storefront. Plus famed and beloved design-world landmarks such as Mies van der Rohe's Seagram building in New York, Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera's Mexico City home and studio, and the Gio Ponti-designed Italian Cultural Institute in Stockholm.
