Healthy Space Experiment:The Impact Path of Tuberculosis Therapy on the Modernist Architectural Transformation in the 19th and 20th Centuries
In the modernist architectural changes of the 19th to the 20th centuries,tuberculosis'therapy influenced the emergence of modernist architectural units,but it has been rarely studied in architectural history.Based on the perspective of tuberculosis,this paper focuses on the history of architectural change from sanatoriums to modernist houses,and specifically analyzes the correspondence and development path between the modernist architectural characteristics-"flat roof,recliner chair,balcony and terrace"and the mainstream treatment of tuberculosis-"Heliotherapy and fresh air treatment".By constructing the picture of the association between tuberculosis and modernism,it argues that tuberculosis is one of the biggest factors influencing modernist architectural change on the one hand,and attempts to explore the medical participation and cultural movement behind the architectural change on the other.
