6. Deconstructivism-
Deconstructivism is a development of
postmodern architecture that began in the
late 1980s.
It centers on the ideas of fragmentation
an interest in manipulating ideas of a
structure's surface that distort some of the
elements of architecture
DECONSTRUCTIVISTS SEEK
"form follows function",
"purity of form",
"truth to materials."
They prefer to stimulate unpredictability and
control chaos

“The real architecture only exists in the
drawings and the real building exists
outside the drawing. Architecture and the
buildings are not the same.”
