The Performance Of Rationalism In Contemporary Architectural Creation

Rationalism refers to all the theories or ideas that advocates logo, emphasizing rational views and trend of thought. In the early 20th century, the modern architecture,based on the success of the industrial revolution, rapid economic growth and the progress of science has shown a distinct tendency to rationalism, with a high embodiment in terms of materials, technics and aestheticism.Today, human has entered a wide range of information age, meanwhile the development of science and technology has greatly changed people's way of life and aesthetic psychology, And diversity also has a great impact on trends of contemporary architecture,with the creation, rationalism in contemporary architecture showing new looks and characteristics of rationalism.First of all, this disquisition concentrates on the architectural design of the basic concepts of rationalism, by studying the sequence of the historical development of modern architecture so that a clear and explicit knowledge on architectural design in the rationalism of the theoretical basis and historical development has formed. On this basis, combining a large number of excellent examples,this disquisition expoundes three important rationalistic performances in contemporary architectural creation: the pursuit of simplest shapable performance is the deepening presentation of modern rationalism and in this paper,the characteristics of the contemporary manifestation of purely-whole performance,elements to streamline, and the three levels of subtle details are set forth; the emphasis of the primitive technical features reflects the real creative concept on creation authenticity of contemporary architecture, mainly in three aspects of the authenticity of materials, the process of nature technics and logical structure of construction; Following the order of generating functions reflects the rationalistic tendencies of contemporary architectural design features——scientific and creative designing methods, The reflection of primary characteristics of space-based capabilities,the logical derivation of environmental constraints, and the scientific functional principle of interpretation are discussed. Finally, with the realistic development of contemporary architecture and personal point of view, the text refers to a certain supplement and summary of the three performance characteristics, and further prospects the development trend of rationalism in the contemporary architecture creation. By means of the analysis of rationalism in contemporary architectural creation of the performance characteristics, this report hopes to disinter the rational creative thinking in the rationalism of contemporary architectural design,to improve our architecture design level, and help to guide the future of architectural design practice.
