I’m not quite sure what the point of this blog is, but I know that it’s a place to document unfamous (and some famous) modern buildings while they still exist. Thanks for reading.

Other Modern is written by me, Rob Stenson. I graduated from Columbia in 2010 with a degree in architectural history, then I became a software engineer for a decade, and then in 2020 I started thinking a lot about buildings again. Then I thought about them so much that, in 2023, I started this blog.

All illustrations and photographs are also by me unless otherwise noted.
