The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It is defined by strict adherence to functional and utilitarian designs and construction methods, typically expressed through minimalism.
- The style is characterized by modular and rectilinear forms, flat surfaces devoid of ornamentation and decoration, open and airy interiors that blend with the exterior, and the use of glass, steel, and concrete.
- The International Style is sometimes called rationalist architecture and the modern movement, although the former is mostly used in English to refer specifically to either Italian rationalism or the style that developed in 1920s Europe more broadly.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The International Style article was read about 83,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 78 and blocks with 82: each hit it takes is cut by 33 %.
