Modernist architecture is architecture, architectural styles and buildings of the 20th century modernist architecture (i.e. high modernism in architecture). It includes the Bauhaus, Mid-Century Modern, International Style, Brutalism, and other regional expressions.
The category "modernist architecture" does not include pre-modernist or proto-modernist movements (that may otherwise be considered "modern") such as expressionist architecture, Art Nouveau, Art Deco, Jugendstil, and the Vienna Secession. Neither does it include Postmodern architecture and its developments such as deconstructivism or critical regionalism.
