The document discusses the architectural styles of neomodernism, deconstructionism, and their key characteristics. It provides examples of works by prominent deconstructionist architects like Frank Gehry, Bernard Tschumi, and Zaha Hadid. Gehry's own house is cited as one of the earliest examples of deconstructivist buildings due to its unconventional use of materials and forms. Tschumi's Parc de la Villette in Paris incorporates deconstructionist principles through its collection of sculptural garden spaces.

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.
