Draft storyboard

300 words narrative

Deconstructivism in architecture is a development of postmodern architecture that began in the late 1980s. Architect such as Peter Eisenman, Zaha Hadid, Coop Himmelbau, Rem Koolhaas, Frank Gehry, Daniel Libeskind and many more have embraced the movement, but after the exhibition held in New York in 1988 many of the architects who were associated with Deconstructivism have distanced themselves from the term. So, Deconstructivism architecture can be said to be the last styles and you can see that the different between Traditional and Deconstructivism architecture are; Structure vs. chaos, ornament vs. purity, permanence vs. change, reason vs. Intuition.
From these ideas, my major assignment I will focus on the revolution of the style itself and to have the clear understanding of each style. The opening of the movie start with the universe and the big bang theory which created the planets, it then travel through time to see the changed on earth and the style of development that mankind achieved. So, the whole idea is that we can see the history of architecture in 3 minutes movies scene. Some part of the animation may be abstract and some may be apparent to its style. The background music will compliment the animation, the song that I’ll be using in this animation is Struggle for pleasure by Wim Mertens, a very strong narrative song that will fit strongly with the idea of Decontructivism architecture.

Article review

Eisenman’s bogus avant-garde

This article talk briefly about Eisnman’s life and how he became successful. It identify some important point such as to be successful as an architect you need not only be a good architect but also a good at architectural theorists, ability to corral a wide range of architect, critics, and historians into the fabrication of the Eisenman; the claim that his designs attempt to record the ambiguities and uncertainties of the era. What distinguishes Eisenman from others architects is his successful seduction of intellectuals, his powerful words. He is one of an architect that exercise the deconstruction theory and master it. Eisenman represent a desire to embrace an avant-garde aesthetic, to stake out the margins of culture in a defiant expression of independence, while simultaneously enjoying all of the benefits of being a very centrist cultural icon. His work may offend visually, aesthetically, or experientially, but it will never offend politically.

Assignment 3 draft ideas

Traditional vs. Deconstructivism

Structure vs. chaos, ornament vs. purity, permanence vs. change, reason vs. intuition. These are the different between traditional and deconstructivism architectural. It tends to appear opposite and distance but in fact it complements each other in one way or another. The two styles is a true remarkable achievement in architectural history. In this assignment 3, I will focus on the different between the two type but at the same time harmonize with each other even thought one is modern and the other is traditional. The main animation can be a simple model of a traditional building which transform and change thought time to reach it deconstruction stage. Background music will help the animation be a powerful work of art in its own right. Let the blur between traditional and deconstructivism changes your thinking and thought and explore new way of architecture.
