Deconstructivism

Page 2: dconstructivism.pptx

• Deconstructivism is a development of postmodern architecture that began in the late 1980s. 

• It is influenced by the theory of "Deconstruction", which is a form of semiotic analysis. 

• It is characterized by fragmentation, an interest in manipulating a structure's surface or skin, non-rectilinear shapes which appear to distort and dislocate elements of architecture, such as structure and envelope. 

• The finished visual appearance of buildings that exhibit deconstructivist "styles" is characterized by unpredictability and controlled chaos.

• Deconstructivist architects were influenced by the French 

philosopher Jacques Derrida.

• Deconstructivism was considered an extension of interest in radical formalism. 

• Some practitioners of deconstructivism were also influenced by the formal experimentation and geometric imbalances of Russian constructivism. 

• Deconstructivism attempts to move away from the supposedly constricting 'rules' of modernism such as "form follows function," "purity of form," and "truth to materials.“

• The main channel from deconstructivist philosophy to architectural theory was through the philosopher Jacques Derrida's influence with Peter Eisenman.

•  Eisenman drew some philosophical bases from the literary movement Deconstruction, and collaborated directly with Derrida on projects including an entry for the Parc de la Villette competition.

DECONSTRUCTIVISM AND DESIGN

• The general characteristics of Deconstructivist design are as follows:

• 1. Explodes architectural form into loose collections of related fragments.

• 2. Destroys the dominance of the right angle and the cube by using the diagonal line and the `slice' of space.

• 3. Uses ideas and images from Russian Revolutionary architecture and design -Russian Constructivism

• 4. Searches for more DYNAMIC spatial possibilities and experiences not explored (or forbidden) by the Modern Movement.

• 5. Provokes shock, uncertainty, unease, disquiet, disruption, distortion by challenging familiar ideas about space, order and regularity in the environment. 

• 6. Rejects the idea of the `perfect form' for a particular activity and rejects the familiar relationship between certain forms and certain activities. 

• 7. work of the architects, Peter Eisenman, Bernard Tschumi and Zaha Hadid.

Behnisch Partner, the Hysolar Institute -a ‘spatial collage of ready-mades.’

Designed to house two institutes of Stuttgart University, the building is in essence a two-story stacked and double-loaded corridor .  Each story consists of metal containers, pre-fabricated and shipped to the site.  The shared hall was intended to encourage the two institutes to work more closely together.

The central hall is atrium-like and triangular in plan. Because of the placement of the hall, it could remain unheated.  

Color is applied thematically for visual effect: turquoise for the beams of the stairs and galleries, red for the curved steel tubing that shoots through the whole building, yellow for the roof supports “so that is seems as if the sun is shining even when the weather is bad.”
