DumbOldLocal: Go out to Alcoa Hwy and see the Clayton I-House. That is a Modern design made right now. Maybe it is in the eye of the beholder, but I think it is beautiful and elegant. If you are the brick and shutters type, it may seem ugly to you. That's just a value judgement.
So, Modern is not dead. The "open floor plan" that is so in style now is the essence of the Modern designed home.
I know the A&A building was designed for students and professors. I don't think Modern is function over form. I'd say it is just less "grotesque" and just simply elegant and minimal.
