Deconstruction in Architecture
Deconstructivism in architecture is a development of postmodern architecture that began in the late 1980s.
Characteristics of Deconstructivism:
- Fragmentation
- Non linear processes of design
- Apparent non-Euclidean geometry
The building designing is dependent upon the construction technology, majority of functions are streamlined and computers are playing the major role in it. It mainly covers the designing of multidirectional ambiguous spaces and forms creating optical illusion.
The basic concept project is to give the look of a ship with its sail at full mast and the designer wanted to create the feeling of square-foot Concert Hall having 2,265-seat auditorium with natural lighting in which the audience surrounds the orchestra.
The auditorium has a curved wooden ceiling which fulfils the acoustical requirements. The dramatically curved exterior of Walt Disney Concert Hall is clad in 22 million pounds of primary steel joined out of 12,500 individual pieces that range from 13 inches to 110 feet long.
