Abstract

Architecture has traditionally been regarded as a key component of culture, respected for its contribution to stability and order in particular. These characteristics are seen to result from the formal composition’s geometric virtue. The pure form of architecture has always been the creation of structures that represent instability and order. Geometric shapes like cubes, cylinders, spheres, cones, pyramids, etc. Are used in building design, and when they are combined according to compositional rules, no form interferes with any other.

It is important to adhere to the fundamental principles of form and style. Over decades, centuries, and even millennia, Western society has developed a set of expectations that define a shared aesthetic. They are crucial. Therefore, it is only logical that breaching these conventions was one of the century’s major themes. Arts that defied convention experienced a significant upsurge in the 20th century. One of the most well-known trends was postmodernism, which was characterized by a rejection of the idea that great theories and rigid definitions are necessary for art. Another is the architectural movement known as deconstructivism, which rejects the notion that structures must take on a unified form.

Triangles are employed to add dynamism; they go against the notion that a structure should have a unified, orderly appearance. Instead, they try to design structures that are divided into simple, unconnected parts. This building would be presented by an architect as the many shapes, rather than attempting to make them fit together. The better, the more contrasting and divided they feel. Without needing to be viewed as a component of a whole, each shape, angle, or form is taken into consideration separately.
