Neomodernism is a reaction to the complexity
of postmodern architecture seeking greater
simplicity.
Neo modern architecture shares many of the
basic characteristics of modernism.
 Both reject classical ornamentation,
decorations, and deliberate ambitions to continue
pre-modernist traditions. Neomodernist
buildings, like modernist ones, are designed to be
largely monolithic and functional.

What is DECONSTRUCTION ?
_The notions and values once believed are now
rejected.
_Form and function not believed to go together.
_spaces not to be believed to give beauty and joy.

4. Ar. Hena Tiwari/ GCAD, Sonipat/2017
Traditional architecture has been inscribed with the hegemony of
Aesthetics
Comfort
Dwelling
Functionality
Architecture of deconstruction seeks to
create a new way of building in which these
traditional notions are re-inscribed in an
altered context.

Rejection of the notion of Order
Undermining the attempt by all previous architecture to
impose order.
World seen as order less and is thus an illusion.
The world is order less, its chaotic. Reality needs to be
expressed through a chaotic architecture.
The design and form are fixed independent of each other.

 Deconstruction, is an approach to building design
that attempts to view architecture in bits and pieces.
 Deconstructivist buildings may seem to have no
visual logic.
 The buildings may appear to be made up of abstract
forms.
 Deconstructive architecture disturbs the
understanding of purity in architecture .

10. Ar. Hena Tiwari/ GCAD, Sonipat/2017
 Form & structure are here both contaminated and
impure in architecture.
 It is this ability that disturbs our sensibility and
understanding of architecture as being pure that makes
the projects deconstructive.
 It challenges the very values of harmony, unity &
stability to propose instead a different view of structure.
