Here Comes the Sun looks at how social reformers, planners and architects
in the early twentieth century tried to remake the city in the image of a sunlit,
ordered utopia. While much has been written about architectural modernism, Worpole concentrates
less on buildings and more on the planning of the spaces in-between – the parks,
public squares, open-air museums, promenades, public pools and other public leisure facilities.
Worpole demonstrates how open-air public spaces became sought - after commissions
for many early modernist architects in the early 1900s, resulting in the transformation
of the European cityscape.
