Organic architecture.
Until we have not referred now to a single one of the main tendencies of the
rationalist architecture: the functionalism characterizes to the functional
architecture the search of rational structures that fundamentally serve the
function as habitability of the buildings, as much in an individual sense as
social. The functionalism, flees from the useless decorative and the necessity
considers to integrate the architectonic work in the deep space, varying the
concept of the sustenance wall and insulating that happens to become a simple
one chewed of crystal, surrounding but no insulating.
As opposed to the functionalism, important architects like
Frank Lloid Wright in North America, Henry go of Velde, Erick Mendelshon and
Alvar Aalto, in Europe, has made an effort in obtaining an architecture that
seemed in character form to a natural organism and that had the same unit.
Although the organics is an own tendency century xx, Vasari and Miguel Angel
already spoke of architecture of organic proportions like the human body.
However, the modern architects conceive the organic architecture like the fusion
of the different parts or elements of a building in an all-organic one that
imitates the nature and are inserted in her like integral part of the same one.
On this Frank Lloid has insisted specially Wright: a building does not have to
be on a hill, but to comprise of the same hill, as if it had been born of the
Earth. |
