German
Konstruktivismus is usually rendered into English as
Constructivism.
Both the Jugendstil (a rough translation of the phrase might mean "youths' style") Art Nouveau and its outgrowth, commonly called Art Deco, could be said to trace their roots back to a logical outgrowth out of, and reply to, the pastiche historicism utilized by Victorian architects (e.g. Frank Furness). Historicism was a feature of European architecture right from the High Renaissance (a lot of Renaissance architecture is in fact Classical Revival) on to the rise of the International Style (Beaux-Arts being the last really historicist movement). Still, the Baroque Revival style seems to be late Victorian.
Hed Kandi, do you have any examples built in the United States?
