As with any new movement, Postmodernism took a step backwards so that it could properly question its predecessor.
All in Postmodernism
While it was not Postmodernism’s goal to create emoting structures, I can’t help but feel awestruck by their valiant experimentation.
Modernists were criticized for not considering the pre-existing skyline. Whether we’ve learned from those mistakes is questionable.
Like art, architecture is subjective. It’s no wonder commercial buildings have more Futurist elements while residential ones are often embellished.
