This architectural movement defies tradition with its fragmented forms, non-linear shapes, and unexpected angles. Deconstructivism in architecture represents a radical break from traditional design and a rejection of the restrictions imposed by modernism. The impact of deconstructivism extends far beyond the buildings themselves, creating new opportunities for architectural expression. Who's your favorite architect who practised deconstructivist architecture through their iconic designs? #Deconstructivism #ArchitecturalRevolution #DesignInnovation #DesignExploration #BreakingNorms

🌈 Have you ever wondered what role colors play in architecture? 🏛️ In architecture, colors can evoke a sense of warmth, create visual harmony, or even convey cultural significance.

This quote encapsulates the essence of my approach, where every design strives to reflect its contemporary context while aspiring for enduring significance. #Architecture #DesignPhilosophy #FrankGehry

I just realized that this year marks 10 years since I have been cooperating with Fundació Mies van der Rohe, reviewing buildings and spaces in Europe. The recently announced shortlist of the top 40 projects according to the EU Mies Award 2024 showcases the direction in which global perception of architecture is changing. Increasingly prominent are aspects such as: coexisting in harmony with surrounding nature, recognizing the diversity of needs, and the community-building role of public space. I invite you to read my subjective selection of the 16 most interesting projects in this year's edition of the award. https://lnkd.in/dG8pGb8t *there is also a Polish version of the text #EUMiesAward #architecture #contemporaryarchitecture

The idea of form following function has evolved in recent years, says Eran Chen, founder of New York-based ODA Architecture. And he explores it in the firm’s new monograph: “ODA: Office of Design and Architecture.” “Modernism has this notion that the form of buildings should follow the functions they serve,” Chen says. “That’s a post-industrial notion, with a utilitarian point of view.” But in an era of working from home – a place where we live and entertain too – the time has arrived for us to focus not just on what we do, but what we’re becoming.

🕌 Spanish excellence in Middle Eastern architecture. Did you know that 1 in every 5 new buildings in the Middle East is incorporating Spanish-made roller shutter slats? 🌞 Interestingly, during the Al-Andalus period, Arabs introduced architectural innovations to Spain, and today, Saxun, from Giménez Ganga, is bringing that influence back, perfectly adapting to the culture of controlling natural light in the Middle East. A story of two cultures that, centuries later, continue to connect through modern architecture. 🏛️ Do you want to be part of this new wave of innovation? #Architecture #Innovation #RollingShutter #Slats #SpanishQuality #SharedHistory

How important do you find sustainable facades and urban landscapes and adaptive reuse architecture, for the times we are living in?
