5 MODERN ARCHITECTS AR 202-ARCH22S3 DE BELEN, NIKKO P. STUDENT NAME AR. APRIL ESTEVA INSTRUCTOR JANUARY 24, 2023 Frank Gehry One example of his work is the Guggenheim Museum Bilbao. Gehry's design concepts often include the use of unexpected and unorthodox forms, such as the use of curving and undulating forms in the Guggenheim Bilbao. He also incorporates the use of unconventional materials, such as titanium, in his designs. In terms of functional zoning, Gehry's designs often blur the boundaries between different functional spaces to create a more fluid and open layout. In terms of circulation and building form, Gehry's designs often prioritize the creation of unique and interesting spaces, rather than traditional circulation patterns. In terms of response to context, Gehry's designs often attempt to reflect and respond to the unique characteristics of the site and surrounding environment. And in terms of building envelope, Gehry's designs often utilize unique and sculptural forms to create a distinct and memorable architectural presence. Zaha Hadid One example of her work is the Heydar Aliyev Center in Baku, Azerbaijan. Hadid's design concepts often include the use of fluid and flowing forms that blur the boundaries between different functional spaces. She also emphasizes the use of advanced technology and parametric design techniques to create highly complex and efficient forms. In terms of functional zoning, Hadid's designs often prioritize the creation of open and flexible spaces that can be adapted to multiple uses. In terms of circulation and building form, Hadid's designs often prioritize the creation of visually dynamic spaces, with a focus on the integration of circulation and structure. In terms of response to context, Hadid's designs often attempt to reflect and respond to the unique characteristics of the site and surrounding environment, while also attempting to create a unique architectural presence. In terms of building envelope, Hadid's designs often utilize complex and sculptural forms to create a distinct and memorable architectural presence. Renzo Piano One example of his work is the Shard in London. Piano's design concepts often include the use of simple and elegant forms, with a focus on the use of natural light and transparency. He also emphasizes the importance of sustainability and the use of advanced technology in his designs. In terms of functional zoning, Piano's designs often prioritize the creation of open and flexible spaces that can be adapted to multiple uses. In terms of circulation and building form, Piano's designs often prioritize the efficient and logical organization of spaces, with a focus on creating easy and intuitive circulation patterns. In terms of response to context, Piano's designs often attempt to reflect and respond to the unique characteristics of the site and surrounding environment, while also attempting to create a unique architectural presence. In terms of building envelope, Piano's designs often utilize simple and elegant forms to create a clean and modern architectural presence. One example of his work is the Church of the Light in Osaka, Japan. Ando's design concepts often include the use of simple and minimal forms, with a focus on the use of natural light and materials. He also emphasizes the importance of creating a strong connection between architecture and nature. In terms of functional zoning, Ando's designs often prioritize the creation of open and flexible spaces that can be adapted to multiple uses. In terms of circulation and building form, Ando's designs often prioritize the efficient and logical organization of spaces, with a focus on creating easy and intuitive circulation patterns. In terms of response to context, Ando's designs often attempt to reflect and respond to the unique characteristics of the site and surrounding environment, while also attempting to create a unique architectural presence. In terms of building envelope, Ando's designs often utilize simple and minimalist forms to create a clean and modern architectural presence. Norman Foster One example of his work is the 30 St Mary Axe (The "Can of Ham") in London. Foster's design concepts often include the use of advanced technology and sustainable design principles, with a focus on the use of natural light and energy efficiency. He also emphasizes the importance of creating a strong connection between architecture and the surrounding environment. In terms of functional zoning, Foster's designs often prioritize the creation of open and flexible spaces that can be adapted to multiple uses. In terms of circulation and building form, Foster's designs often prioritize the efficient and logical organization of spaces, with a focus on creating easy and intuitive circulation patterns. In terms of response to context, Foster's designs often attempt to reflect and respond to the unique characteristics of the site and surrounding environment, while also attempting to create a unique architectural presence. In terms of building envelope, Foster's designs often utilize simple and elegant forms to create a clean and modern architectural presence, often with an emphasis on the use of advanced technology and materials.
