Visualization of deconstructivist composition

Abstract

This report is a study of perceptive mechanisms that function to experience architectural composition and to determine what underlying principles constitute a positive emotional response. It is with particular interest that this report makes a study of Deconstructivist Architecture because of its de-stabilization of the status quo. Deconstructivist compositions exist to reject forms traditionally composed in advocating perceptual instability. Instability prevails because the proponents of Deconstructivist Architecture aim to reinterpret the way we see by rejecting any forms in the composition whole that are simply 'recognized' The report starts with an investigation of how perceptive mechanisms work and then will define the structural orders that we perceive in a composition. Outlined also are the ways our subjective values, particularly those of rectilinear formal, inhibit experience. Finally, analysis of typical Deconstructivist compositions, will be studied in the way they are visually seen, that is, in their radical manner that de-stabilises our subjective perceptions. The report concludes by defining the compositional principles that constitute good Deconstructivist composition to demonstrate that a highly organized totality is fundamentally different from random assemblage.
