The term "Modernism" refers to the radical shift in the art and literature of the post World War One period. Modernism thus makes a distinctive break with Victorian bourgeois morality. It presented a profoundly pessimistic picture of culture in disarray recognizing the failure of language to ever fully communicate meaning the modernists generally downplayed content in favor of an investigation of form. Modern style was born as a result of art departure from Realism and reality which rose a wave of awe and hatred. It was a form of a rebel against steady ideas of art. The elements of realism presented in deformation of methods in order to introduce the existing reality. The technical revolution and progress were about to present the new alternatives most focused on aspects of building design. There was a possibility of a new style will be based solely upon the innovations of iron construction. The architecture in some way rejects ornaments and decorative arts going straight to simplicity of the forms. It seemed that style protests about the importance of individual artistic inspiration. The architectures were inspired by ideas of rationalization and standardization.
