Architecture and Design of the Building
Building Description
- Modern design with asymmetrical facade
- Use of irregular window patterns
- Minimalist color palette
- Dynamic form, possibly hinting at deconstructivist influences
Modernism
- Simplified forms
- Lack of ornamentation
- Functional use of space
Real-life examples include the Villa Savoye by Le Corbusier and the Seagram Building by Mies van der Rohe.
Deconstructivism
- Non-rectilinear shapes that appear to distort and dislocate
- Chaos and unpredictability in the design
- Fragmentation of the constructed building
Real-life examples include the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao by Frank Gehry and the Walt Disney Concert Hall also by Frank Gehry.
Brutalism
- Bold, blocky appearance

- Expression of structural materials as part of the aesthetic
