Narrative

Deconstruction can be characterized by ideas of fragmentation, manipulating the idea of structure’s surfaces. Those shapes which serve to distort and dislocate the elements of architecture started to became the major parts of architecture. Buildings are usually represented as a box in the model, actions such as distortion and fragmentation can be used to show the deconstruction happened in the city. Improve the environment of urban context by deconstructing existing construction to play flexibly against started to be concerned as one of the most efficient means to enhance the economical status. By comparing architectures built in the past, in recent years and those tended to show the future, achievements done can be clearly notices as well as the inadequate elements. Their existences not only illustrate the achievements but also engage people continue to move forwards.

My idea for the video will be indicate the achievements done so far and works need to be improved in the future by comparing architectures in the past, in recent years and also those which tended to represent future to. Ancient streetscape will be displayed in the first part; overall living status will be showed by following an architectural journey. A ball falling off from a table changed into the centre of the city, microscopic and macroscopic views are used when scenes changed. Deconstruction will be the media of connecting each time period. The developments of the cities are done by deconstructing the existing eliminated buildings to build new, modern architectures. Futurism will be showed in the third part of the video, which might also indicate the future development direction such as the architectures in Dubai. Similar elements will be used in the video such as staircase so that it can be not only act as function element connecting two time periods but also providing unity of the whole video.

Deconstruction can be characterized by ideas of fragmentation, manipulating the idea of structure’s surfaces. Those shapes which serve to distort and dislocate the elements of architecture started to became the major parts of architecture. It is said that one of the major current in deconstructivist architecture takes inspiration from the Russian constructivist and futurist movements both in graphics and visionary architecture.

Nowadays economic development is one of the attractive growing sectors. Improve the environment of urban context by deconstructing existing construction to play flexibly against started to be concerned as one of the most efficient means to enhance the economical status. Architecture can be seen as a special record of history, using its own language to illustrate the culture, economic, and educational status during certain time period in particular area.

Therefore, the urban context of a city which can be seen as the outcome of deconstruction indicates the achievements in technology, economic, education and culture. Besides, it might also point out the tendency of the culture, such as futurism. By comparing architectures built in the past, in recent years and those tended to show the future, achievements done can be clearly notices as well as the inadequate elements. Their existences not only illustrate the achievements but also engage people continue to move forwards.

'Set'- a group of objects with certain similarities
what I was trying to do is create a journey story from the very beginning (facing choices and making decision)) to the end by using both of architecture images and 3Ds-MAX video files.
