What is Multiform - Architecture in an Age of Transition (Architectural Design) about?
Our current moment is one of profound political, economic and environmental change. Historically, these moments of transition have seen a parallel period of cultural – and notably architectural – flux. In the late 1970s this was manifested in postmodernism. Today, a number of architects are looking again at this movement and redeploying a range of its tactics and approaches using contemporary methods and techniques. These include different modes of collage; formal reference and quotation; stylistic eclecticism; symbolism in form, material and ornament; and the bold, expressive use of colour, both natural and synthetic. We call this tendency Multiform.
