Starting with a unique matrix I wanted in this series of 16 images, illustrate the evolution
and transformation of the architectural movements and style of the last century.
A timeline in a chronological "disorder" photographing some of the major architectural
movements of recent decades.
The architecture is people. It is made by people and for people. Architecture changes with
society, follows the society sometimes guides it. It’s easy to see the changes of the society
through the mutation of the spaces we inhabit. Walking through a contemporary city we
can often observe sequences of buildings with different shapes, various styles and
heterogeneous languages that coexist in an architectural (dis)order. They are like the
pieces of a mosaic that relates the passage of time. It is not difficult to see an art deco
building that touches a deconstructivist structure in a timeless embrace.
The idea behind these illustrations is to summarize in an intuitive and sensory exercise
some of the major architectural movements through a few graphic gestures. Some simple
geometries, the use of color, the mention of materials, the typography and the decorations
are the ingredients that generate a composition which is a small tribute to architecture.
