Post-Modern Architecture making an appearence...if we still call it that?

Post Modernism flourished in its day making it a very icon era...especially with design when reactions to the modernist opinion of objects having a pre-determined life.


As with this modern piece of architecture (Casa Da Musica in Porto)...not all objects have to be a predertimined solution but be seen as a number of solutions depending on the context that it is placed in.


Clearly...what ever we now see them as there is a clear trend in modern design and architectural culture to take huge inspiration from all previous decades. As with my previous post...print and pattern fashion have a massive interest in the very elaborate swirls, motifs and polka dots from a very popular era.

From this...I can see many other eras will be engaged upon in the coming year.
