Postmodernism

Postmodernism it’s a movement in architecture that rejected the modernist. Modernism is here to understand art and architecture projects in favor of going for better and to create forms for other purpose like novelty. Modernism also was an exploration of possibilities and search for uniqueness and its individuality.

Postmodernism wanted to maintain some elements of modern while returning to the classical forms of the past. The result of this was an ironic for collage to approach to construction that combines several traditional styles into one structure. As collage, meaning is was found in combinations of already created patterns.

By following this, the modern romantic image of the lone creative artist was dramatic abandoned.
 

 

 

First reaction of Post-modernism emerged as a cultural. Then modern movement had changes in responding to societal attitudes being negotiated through the Post-Colonial movement. Postmodernism also faced with the Punk movement that leaded to the seed for Craft Punk where freedom of expression and truth to materials remain core values. Sometimes traditional views just have to be turned upside down to ensure culture and society.

Historicism, was self-referential, and expressed itself through different styles. There was a general choice in design and the possibilities became endless. Historic architectural ruins the imaginations and works of many designers and artists. Ettore Sottsass designed using bright and colorful colors with strong contrasts and patterns. Aldo Rossi and Michael Graves experimented with architectural styles in their own designs.
