Modern architecture descends directly from the 1830 shift from craft to industrial production

Evidence

The `new’ architecture has its source in the moment of the Industrial Revolution around 1830, at the moment of transformation from craft to industrial production processes. We can hardly compare the daring of the progress we have made to that of the nineteenth century at all. The task of today’s generation is: to transfer into residential form what the nineteenth century was only able to express in abstract constructions which are, to us, inwardly monotonous. — Rolf Wiggershaus, The Frankfurt School, 223
