This document defines and discusses deconstructivism in architecture. It begins by defining key terms like deconstruction, deconstructivism, and "decon." It then discusses characteristics of deconstructivist buildings like being distorted and twisted. The document traces the origins of deconstructivism to the works of Freud and Derrida, and discusses how it emerged as a response to modernism's focus on form following function. Important deconstructivist architects like Eisenman, Gehry, and Hadid are mentioned. Key characteristics of their buildings are creating complexity, contradiction, fragmentation, and a separation of form and function. The document concludes by outlining some criticisms of deconstructivism.

CRITICISM ON DECONSTRUCTIVISM • Kenneth Frampton finds it “elitist and detached.” • Nikos Salingaros calls deconstructivism a "viral expression" that invades design thinking in order to build destroyed forms. • Other criticisms are similar to those of deconstructivist philosophy— that since the act of deconstructivism is not an empirical process, it can result in whatever an architect wishes, and it thus suffers from a lack of consistency. • Today the philosophical underpinnings of the beginning of the movement have been lost, and all that is left is the aesthetic of deconstructivism. • Judhajit Chakraborty argues Today, the term 'deconstructivism' is used casually to label any work that favours complexity over simplicity and dramatises the formal possibilities of digital production
