Architects explored Postmodern architecture which
offered a blend of some pre-modern elements, and
deliberately sought to move away from rectilinear
designs, towards more eclectic styles.
•
High Postmodern aesthetics lacked traction and by the
mid-1990s, a new surge of modern architecture once
again established international pre-eminence.
•
Although modern and postmodern design compete
with a revival of traditional architectural design in
commercial and institutional architecture; residential
design continues to be dominated by a traditional
aesthetic.
