Modern architecture

Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I choose it because modern architecture is something I focus on in my studies as it is new and contemporary in this moment of time. This type of architecture matters as it becomes part of an era that will relapse after new trends and types of architecture take place. The designs are not only aesthetically pleasing but also holds a purpose based on how the space is used. My preliminary impression of modern architecture was beautiful but functional for those who inhabit the space.
