In [[architecture]], '''functionalism''' is the principle that buildings should be designed based solely on their purpose and function. An international functionalist architecture movement emerged in the wake of [[World War I]], as part of the wave of [[Modernism]]. Its ideas were largely inspired by a desire to build a new and better world for the people, as broadly and strongly expressed by the social and political movements of Europe after the extremely devastating world war. In this respect, functionalist architecture is often linked with the ideas of [[socialism]] and modern [[humanism]].

A new slight addition to this new wave of architecture was that not only should buildings and houses be designed around the purpose of functionality, architecture should also be used as a means to physically create a better world and a better life for people in the broadest sense. This new functionalist architecture had the strongest impact in [[Czechoslovakia]], [[Germany]], [[Poland]],<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://adrianyekkes.blogspot.com/2018/06/gdynia-polands-modernist-masterpiece.html|title=Adrian Yekkes: Gdynia – Poland's modernist masterpiece|date=June 29, 2018}}</ref> the [[USSR]] and the [[Netherlands]], and from the 1930s also in [[Scandinavia]] and [[Finland]].

This principle is a matter of confusion and controversy within the profession, particularly in regard to [[modern architecture]], as it is less self-evident than it first appears.

== History of functionalism ==
The theoretical articulation of functionalism in buildings can be traced back to the [[Vitruvian triad]], where ''utilitas'' (variously translated as 'commodity', 'convenience', 'utility') stands alongside ''firmitas'' (firmness) and ''venustas'' (beauty) as one of three classic goals of architecture. Functionalist views were typical of some [[Gothic Revival architecture|Gothic Revival]] architects. In particular, [[Augustus Welby Pugin]] wrote that "there should be no features about a building which are not necessary for convenience, construction, or propriety" and "all ornament should consist of enrichment of the essential construction of the building".<ref>A.W.N.Pugin, The true principles of pointed or Christian architecture: set forth in two lectures delivered at St. Marie's, Oscott.</ref>

In 1896, Chicago architect [[Louis Sullivan]] coined the phrase [[Form follows function]]. However, this aphorism does not relate to a contemporary understanding of the term 'function' as utility or the satisfaction of user needs; it was instead based in metaphysics, as the expression of organic essence and could be paraphrased as meaning 'destiny'.<ref>Forty, A. ‘Words & Buildings: Function’, pp 174.</ref>

In the mid-1930s, functionalism began to be discussed as an aesthetic approach rather than a matter of design integrity (use). The idea of functionalism was conflated with a lack of ornamentation, which is a different matter. It became a pejorative term associated with the baldest and most brutal ways to cover space, like cheap commercial buildings and sheds, then finally used, for example in academic criticism of [[Buckminster Fuller]]'s [[geodesic dome]]s, simply as a synonym for 'gauche'.

For 70 years the influential American architect [[Philip Johnson]] held that the profession has no functional responsibility whatsoever, and this is one of the many views today. The position of [[Postmodernism in architecture|postmodern]] architect [[Peter Eisenman]] is based on a user-hostile theoretical basis and even more extreme: "I don't do function."<ref>Branko Mitrovic, ''Philosophy for Architects'', New York: Chronicle Books, 2012. p.153.</ref>

== Modernism ==
{{Main|Modern architecture}}
Popular notions of [[modern architecture]] are heavily influenced by the work of the Franco-Swiss architect [[Le Corbusier]] and the German architect [[Mies van der Rohe]]. Both were functionalists at least to the extent that their buildings were radical simplifications of previous styles. In 1923, Mies van der Rohe was working in [[Weimar culture|Weimar]] Germany, and had begun his career of producing radically simplified, lovingly detailed structures that achieved Sullivan's goal of inherent architectural beauty. Le Corbusier famously said "a house is a machine for living in"; his 1923 book ''[[Vers une architecture]]'' was, and still is, very influential, and his early built work such as the [[Villa Savoye]] in [[Poissy]], [[France]], is thought of as prototypically function.

== In Europe ==
=== Czechoslovakia ===
The former [[Czechoslovakia]] was an early adopter of the functionalist style, with notable examples such as [[Villa Tugendhat]] in [[Brno]], designed by [[Ludwig Mies van der Rohe|Mies van der Rohe]] in 1928, [[Villa Müller]] in [[Prague]], designed by [[Adolf Loos]] in 1930, and the majority of the city of [[Zlín]], developed by the [[Bata Corporation|Bata shoe company]] as a factory town in the 1920s<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/17/travel/exploring-czech-functionalism-in-brno.html|title=Exploring Czech Functionalism in Brno|last=Rail|first=Evan|date=2012-06-15|work=The New York Times|access-date=2019-05-28|issn=0362-4331}}</ref> and designed by [[Le Corbusier]]'s student [[František Lydie Gahura]].

Numerous villas, apartment buildings and interiors, factories, office blocks and department stores can be found in the functionalist style throughout the country, which industrialised rapidly in the early 20th century while embracing the [[Bauhaus]]-style architecture that was emerging concurrently in Germany.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.travelandleisure.com/articles/form-and-function|title=Discovering Brno's Architecture|work=Travel + Leisure|access-date=2019-05-28}}</ref> Large urban extensions to Brno in particular contain numerous apartment buildings in the functionalist style, while the domestic interiors of Adolf Loos in [[Plzeň]]<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.adolfloosplzen.cz/en/|title=Adolf Loos in Plzeň|website=adolfloosplzen.cz|access-date=2019-05-28}}</ref> are also notable for their application of functionalist principles.

=== Nordic "funkis" ===
[[File:Kansankatu 47 Oulu 20080503.JPG|thumb|Typical railing, flat roof, stucco and colour detail in Nordic funkis (SOK warehouse and offices, 1938, [[Finland]])]]
In Scandinavia and Finland, the international movement and ideas of modernist architecture became widely known among architects at the [[Stockholm Exhibition (1930)|1930 Stockholm Exhibition]], under the guidance of director and Swedish architect [[Gunnar Asplund]]. Enthusiastic architects collected their ideas and inspirations in the manifesto ''[[acceptera]]'' and in the years thereafter, a functionalist architecture emerged throughout Scandinavia. The genre involves some peculiar features unique to Scandinavia and it is often referred to as "funkis", to distinguish it from functionalism in general. Some of the common features are flat roofing, [[stucco]]ed walls, [[Architectural glass|architectural glazing]] and well-lit rooms, an industrial expression and nautical-inspired details, including round windows.<ref>William C Miller (2016): ''Nordic Modernism: Scandinavian Architecture 1890–2017'', The Crowood Press Ltd., {{ISBN|978 1 78500 237 3}}</ref> The global stock market crisis and [[1929 economic crisis|economic meltdown in 1929]], instigated the needs to use affordable materials, such as brick and concrete, and to build quickly and efficiently. These needs became another signature of the Nordic version of functionalist architecture, in particular in buildings from the 1930s, and carried over into modernist architecture when industrial serial production became much more prevalent after World War II.<ref name="Connah" />

As most architectural styles, Nordic funkis was international in its scope and several architects designed Nordic funkis buildings throughout the region. Some of the most active architects working internationally with this style, includes [[Edvard Heiberg]], [[Arne Jacobsen]] and [[Alvar Aalto]]. Nordic funkis features prominently in Scandinavian urban architecture, as the need for urban housing and new institutions for the growing [[welfare state]]s exploded after World War II. Funkis had its heyday in the 1930s and 1940s, but functionalist architecture continued to be built long into the 1960s. These later structures, however, tend to be categorized as modernism in a Nordic context.

==== Denmark ====
[[Vilhelm Lauritzen]], [[Arne Jacobsen]] and [[C.F. Møller]] were among the most active and influential Danish architects of the new functionalist ideas and Arne Jacobsen, [[Poul Kjærholm]], [[Kaare Klint]], and others, extended the new approach to design in general, most notably furniture which evolved to become [[Danish modern]].<ref>Andrew Hollingsworth, [[Danish Modern]], 2008, Gibbs Smith, p. 31.</ref> Some Danish designers and artists who did not work as architects are sometimes also included in the Danish functionalist movement, such as [[Finn Juhl]], [[Louis Poulsen]] and [[Poul Henningsen]]. In Denmark, bricks were largely preferred over reinforced concrete as construction material, and this included funkis buildings. Apart from institutions and apartment blocks, more than 100,000 single-family funkis houses were built in the years 1925–1945. However, the truly dedicated funkis design was often approached with caution. Many residential buildings only included some signature funkis elements such as round windows, corner windows or architectural glazing to signal modernity while not provoking conservative traditionalists too much. This branch of restrained approach to the funkis design created the Danish version of the [[bungalow]] building.<ref>Jeanne Brüel (2014): "''Funkishuset – en bevaringsguide''", {{in lang|da}} Bygningskultur Danmark</ref><ref>Johan Hage: [https://issuu.com/johanhage/docs/web_funkishuset Funkishuset] {{in lang|da}}</ref>

Fine examples of Danish functionalist architecture are the now listed [[Kastrup Airport]] 1939 terminal by Vilhelm Lauritzen, [[Aarhus University]] (by C. F. Møller et al.) and [[Aarhus City Hall]] (by Arne Jacobsen et al.), all including furniture and lamps specially designed for these buildings in the functionalist spirit. The largest functionalist complex in the Nordic countries is the 30,000-sq. m. residential compound of [[Hostrups Have]] in Copenhagen.<ref>Niels-Ole Lund (2008): ''Nordic Architecture'', Arkitektens Forlag, {{ISBN|9788774072584}}</ref>

==== Finland ====
Some of the most prolific and notable architects in Finland, working in the funkis style, includes [[Alvar Aalto]] and [[Erik Bryggman]] who were both engaged from the very start in the 1930s. The [[Turku]] region pioneered this new style and the journal ''[[Arkkitehti]]'' mediated and discussed functionalism in a Finnish context. Many of the first buildings in the funkis style were industrial structures, institutions and offices but spread to other kinds of structures such as residential buildings, individual housing and churches. The functionalist design also spread to interior designs and furniture as exemplified by the iconic [[Paimio Sanatorium]], designed in 1929 and built in 1933.<ref name="yit">YIT: [https://www.yitgroup.com/en/news-repository/news/functionalism-is-a-finnish-thing Functionalism is a Finnish thing]</ref><ref name="Connah">{{cite book|title=Finland: Modern Architectures in History|author=Roger Connah|publisher=Reaktion Books|year=2006}}</ref><ref>{{cite book|title=Finnish Architecture and the Modernist Tradition|author=Malcolm Quantrill|publisher=Taylor & Francis|year=2012}}</ref>

Aalto introduced standardised, precast concrete elements as early as the late 1920s, when he designed residential buildings in Turku. This technique became a cornerstone of later developments in modernist architecture after World War II, especially in the 1950s and 1960s. He also introduced serial produced wooden housing.<ref name="yit" />

=== Poland ===
[[Interbellum Poland|Interbellum]] avant-garde Polish architects in the years 1918–1939 made a notable impact in the legacy of European modern architecture and functionalism. A lot of Polish architects were fascinated by Le Corbusier like his Polish students and coworkers [[Jerzy Sołtan]], Aleksander Kujawski (both co-authors of [[Unité d'habitation]] in Marseille<ref>Le Corbusier l'unité d'habitation de Marseille Jacques Sbriglio 2013</ref>) and his coworkers [[Helena Syrkus]] (Le Corbusier's companion on board of the S.S. Patris, an ocean liner journeying from Marseille to Athens in 1933 during the CIAM IV<ref>Józef Piłatowicz POGLĄDY HELENY I SZYMONA SYRKUSÓW
NA ARCHITEKTURĘ W LATACH 1925–1956 Warszawa 2009</ref>), [[Roman Piotrowski]] and [[Maciej Nowicki (architect)|Maciej Nowicki]]. Le Corbusier said about Poles (''When the Cathedrals Were White'', Paris 1937) "Academism has sent down roots everywhere. Nevertheless, the Dutch are relatively free of bias. The Czechs believe in 'modern' and the Polish also." Other Polish architects like Stanisław Brukalski was meeting with [[Gerrit Rietveld]] and inspired by him and his [[neoplasticism]]. Only a few years after the construction of [[Rietveld Schröder House]], Polish architect Stanisław Brukalski built his own house<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://zabytek.pl/pl/obiekty/warszawa-willa-barbary-i-stanislawa-brukalskich|title=Willa Barbary i Stanisława Brukalskich, Warszawa – Zabytek.pl|website=zabytek.pl}}</ref> in Warsaw in 1929 supposedly inspired by [[Rietveld Schröder House|Schröder House]] he had visited. His Polish example of the modern house was awarded bronze medal in [[Exposition Internationale des Arts et Techniques dans la Vie Moderne|Paris world expo]] in 1937. Just before the Second World War, it was fashionable to build in [[Poland]] a lot of large districts of luxury houses in neighbourhoods full of greenery for wealthy Poles like, for example, district [[Saska Kępa]] in [[Architecture of Warsaw|Warsaw]] or district Kamienna Góra in seaport [[Gdynia]]. The most characteristic features in Polish functionalist architecture 1918–1939 were portholes, roof terraces and marble interiors.

Probably the most outstanding work of Polish functionalist architecture is the [[Modernist Center of Gdynia|entire city of Gdynia]], modern Polish seaport established 1926.

=== Russia ===
In Russia and the former [[Soviet Union]], functionalism was known as [[Constructivist architecture]], and was the dominant style for major building projects between 1918 and 1932. The 1932 competition for the Palace of the Soviets and the winning entry by Boris Iofan marked the start of eclectic historicism of Stalinist Architecture and the end of constructivist domination in Soviet Union.

===Zlín, Czech Republic===
[[File:Zlin-Areal Svit.JPG|thumb|Zlín in the Czech Republic]]

[[Zlín]] is a city in the Czech Republic which was in the 1930s completely reconstructed on principles of functionalism. In that time the city was a headquarters of [[Bata Shoes]] company and Tomáš Baťa initiated a complex reconstruction of the city which was inspired by functionalism and the [[Garden city movement]].

Zlín's distinctive architecture was guided by principles that were strictly observed during its whole inter-war development. Its central theme was the derivation of all architectural elements from the factory buildings. The central position of the industrial production in the life of all Zlín inhabitants was to be highlighted. Hence the same building materials (red bricks, glass, reinforced concrete) were used for the construction of all public (and most private) edifices. The common structural element of Zlín architecture is a square bay of 20x20 feet (6.15x6.15 m). Although modified by several variations, this high modernist style leads to a high degree of uniformity of all buildings. It highlights the central and unique idea of an industrial garden city at the same time. Architectural and urban functionalism was to serve the demands of a modern city. The simplicity of its buildings which also translated into its functional adaptability was to prescribe (and also react to) the needs of everyday life.

The urban plan of Zlín was the creation of [[František Lydie Gahura]], a student at Le Corbusier's atelier in Paris. Architectural highlights of the city are e.g. the Villa of Tomáš Baťa, Baťa's Hospital, [[Tomas Bata Memorial]], The Grand Cinema or [[Baťa's Skyscraper]].

[[Khrushchyovka]] ({{lang-rus|хрущёвка|p=xrʊˈɕːɵfkə}}) is an unofficial name of type of low-cost, concrete-[[Panel building|paneled]] or brick three- to five-storied [[apartment building]] which was developed in the [[Soviet Union]] during the early 1960s, during the time its namesake [[Nikita Khrushchev]] directed the Soviet government. The apartment buildings also went by the name of "Khruschoba" ({{Lang|ru|Хрущёв+трущоба}}, Khrushchev-slum).

==Functionalism in landscape architecture==

The development of functionalism in [[landscape architecture]] paralleled its development in building architecture. At the residential scale, designers like [[Christopher Tunnard]], [[James C. Rose|James Rose]], and [[Garrett Eckbo]] advocated a design philosophy based on the creation of spaces for outdoor living and the integration of house and garden.<ref>Rogers, Elizabeth Barlow. ''Landscape Design: A Cultural and Architectural History''. New York: Abrams, 2001. pp. 23, 454–455</ref> At a larger scale, the German landscape architect and planner [[Leberecht Migge]] advocated the use of edible gardens in social housing projects as a way to counteract hunger and increase self-sufficiency of families. At a still larger scale, the [[Congrès International d'Architecture Moderne]] advocated for urban design strategies based on human proportions and in support of four functions of human settlement: housing, work, play, and transport.
