Problem description:

The evaluation of modernist design style also has its own characteristics:

Analysis:

Modernist design developed from architectural design. Around the 1920s, a group of advanced European designers and architects formed a powerful group to promote the so-called new building movement. The content of this movement is very complicated, including both spiritual and ideological reforms and technological progress, especially the use of new materials, thus breaking the position and principle of serving the rich and powerful for thousands of years and completely attaching thousands of years of architecture to it. Then from the beginning of the architectural revolution, it has influenced urban planning and design, environmental design, furniture design, industrial product design, graphic design, communication design and so on. Formed a truly complete modernist design movement.

Taking architecture as an example, since 19 came into being at the end of the 20th century, it has adhered to the basic position of facing the public. In order to change the traditional and expensive building materials and construction methods, a large number of industrial building materials, such as cement, glass, steel and so on. , greatly reducing the construction cost. At the same time, the basic structure and construction method of the building have been changed, and a large number of prefabricated components and field assembly have been adopted. In order to reduce costs and realize a new era, modernism completely abolished decoration and realized the Austrian architect Adolf? Ruth thinks decoration is an evil principle. In form, there is a simple cubist appearance, with white and black as the center of industrialized neutral color. The building is supported by columns, all of which adopt the so-called curtain wall structure, and follow the basic principles of functionalism, forming a new architectural form of cubism that is pure to the extreme and indifferent to rationality. We can simply summarize its style characteristics as follows:

1. functionalism Emphasize that function is the center and purpose of design, rather than taking form as the starting point of design, pay attention to the scientificity of design and the scientificity and convenience of design implementation.

2. Formally advocate simple geometric modeling without modification. Influenced by artistic cubism, he advocated six-sided architecture and curtain wall architecture, and advocated standardization principle, neutral color scheme and anti-decoration position.

3. Pay attention to the consideration of space in the specific design, especially emphasize the overall design, oppose the design on the drawing board and forecast diagram, and advocate the model-centered design planning.

4. Pay attention to the cost and expenditure of the design object, incorporate economic issues into the design, and consider planning as an important factor to achieve practical and economic purposes.

It should also be mentioned that since the beginning of the 20th century, modernist design has developed in several European countries, especially in Germany and Russia. Later, due to the persecution of the European dictatorship, it began to decline rapidly in Europe from the 1930s. With a large number of designers immigrating to the United States, modernist design was introduced to the United States and started a new stage in this new continent. But the economic, political and cultural background of the United States is completely different from that of Europe. The increasingly developed economy in the United States and the aesthetic taste of the middle class have turned the modernism that once cared about the country and people in Europe into a form of serving the middle class. Its content has been taken away by the richness of the United States, leaving only a more refined and formal shell. The withering of ideas makes modernist design lose its vitality and move towards the road of * * *. In the 1970s, this modernist design style, known as internationalism, almost came to an end, and it was replaced by a series of new styles and patterns, presenting a colorful design situation, which indisputably shows that the era of advocating individuality and diversity has arrived.
