Post Modernism

 As we all know technology is always improving and changing. Communicating is now easier and because of this design is an international profession. Design is evolving all around the world and designers are becoming more worldwide because of communication and travel. One designer from this era that really intrigued me is Cesar Pelli. He is an Argentine and American Architect who has built some of the world's tallest buildings. One of his most famous is Petronas Center in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.

Another designer and architect who truly inspired me is Micheal Graves.He was part of the The New York Five. Not only did he design buildings and furniture but he also designed household items like the famous kettle. In 2003, he went through a traumatic infection causing him to be paralyzed from the waist down. After this happened to him he became inspired to design furniture for hospitals. I think embracing with what you are given or what happens is very inspiring and this really touched me. Here are some of his designs.

Another man who I thought was inspiring today is Frank Gehry. His works are some of the most important building of contemporary design.  The way he thinks of his deigns and his way of life and thinking is very interesting and inspiring. The picture below is called the dancing building representing a man and a woman dancing. I think relating buildings to people is very creative!
