History and profile
L’Architecture Vivante was published quarterly between 1923 and 1932. Jean Badovici, a Romanian architecture and critic, edited the magazine for two years from 1923 to 1925. He was an influential critic and mentor in France of international modern architecture, and he convinced the publisher, Albert Morancé, of the need for such a magazine.
L’Architecture Vivante devoted to modern architecture and design. The quarterly immediately became an influential advocate of the International style (Bauhaus, Constructivism, De Stijl).
