Expressionist Organic Paths in Architecture

More about the book

The book delves into the evolution of architectural styles, contrasting periods of academic classicism with moments of individualism and anarchism. It highlights the challenge of connecting diverse, nonconformist architects who break from established norms. Focusing on two main poetics—Organicism and Expressionism—it examines how contemporary architecture embraces these ideas, pushing boundaries through innovative design that allows structures to function like living organisms, capable of independent existence and interaction with their environment.
