The impacts of the world war one and two had major impacts on modernism with influences from political, social, and physical aspects. after the discussion we had in class we came up with a list of some key elements that helped shape modernism such as, skyscrapers, emigration of key designers to the U.S., World's Fair's, new building materials, and advertising. I believe that after the war that advertising was the major influence that affected modernism and design because it was a major art of the daily consumers home. It started with magazines and newspaper, which developed into the radio and television. These were direct influences to the everyday home and I believe that had more of an impact than any other influence.
