			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Post modern terms is popular among elites and intellectuals. Post Modern term itself was born and popularized by the critical history of architecture, Charles Jencks in a seminar at the University Eindhoven in 1978 the idea became the theme of conversation in the architecture Biennale in Venice in 1980.</p>
<p>In the world of architecture, modern post architecture shows on something of process or activity and can be classified as post-modern style symbols.<br />
<span id="more-30"></span><br />
The appearance of modern post can not be separated from the previously applicable aspects of modern architecture. Modern architecture which has been running for over half a century began reaching saturation point. Concepts that are too logical and rational as well as the lack of attention to social values​​, environment and emotions that exist in society will have a variety of criticisms and responses means that modern architecture is more likely to pay attention to how humans should live and the lack of attention to actual human life (nature unilateral). His works were very stiff, boring and has no identity, because it has the same style on almost all types of buildings in various places.</p>
<p>A group then determined a new architect to establish a basic philosophy and the new wider format for design. In his quest for a new architectural vocabulary, then the architects of this new turn to the sources of diverse nature formerly avoided, as Rennisance-Italian, baroque-German, Las Vegas and others.</p>
<p>Post Modern is characterized by the reemergence of classical forms, traditional building process (the vernacular) and improve its function. The characteristics of the modern post include:<br />
· Aspects of unification with the environment and history, is also adjusting to the situation around<br />
· The elements included not only the function itself but also as an ornamental element<br />
· The use of geometric elements, seen as a simple form that is not functional, but highlighted as enhancer elements in the composition or harmony of decor.<br />
· The color tends bright and erotic, which is dominated not by color but by the color base mix is heavily influenced pastel, yellow, red and blue violet.<br />
· Relying on a hybrid composition that justifies people to take the elements that exist to be modified as a rich college.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The modern design has a character of a simple style, clean, functional, stylish, trendy up to date, and have a connection with modern lifestyle . The modern lifestyle is supported by development of technology, whereas many things that were not applicable or available become more availabe for many people.</p>
<p>Modern architecture in Indonesia doesn`t have its develpoment in the country. As other architectural style that is imported from the western countries, This style coming to Indonesia because of influence of globalization the modern architecture style developed as an international style that has similar appearance and concept in all coutries. At least modern style keep having a similarity that function as the beginning of design. In Indonesia, modern style is considered as a style wheere functionality is also the beginning of design<br />
<span id="more-26"></span><br />
In the modern lifestyle, the society seems to like things that are easier and quicker because of many tools are made industrially. The basic character of modern lifestyle is a demand to move faster, and do everything faster, that is supported by technology and industrialization.</p>
<p>Technology is developed to make work and daily life easier like the development of information technology that enable people to communicate using devices like telephones and computers.</p>
<p>Quality and speed have become important factors in modern lifestyle. There is an intention to see the value of devices based on the function value or how many function that a device has, and based on its support to modern lifestyle that demand easier and fuctional devices.</p>
<p>In architecture, the modern lifestyle has its impact to the will to own simple building, clean, and functional as a symbol of modern spirit. But this kind of lifestyle {in Indonesia} can only be owned only by high class, especially they who live in big cities, where life demands faster lifestyle, functional and efficient.</p>
<p>In Indonesia, modern lifestyle that is implemented sometimes still has aesthetic ornaments that is brought from classic or ethnic style, while other parts of the building is designed in pure modern design. It is often for us to hear `modern classical architecture`, `ethnic modern architecture`, `modern traditional architecture`, `modern Balinese architecture`, etc. In Indonesia, it seeems to be obvious that ornaments is still implemented in modern design, but this will make this kind of architecture to be `blurr`, whether it is modern or postmodern?</p>
<p>To call this modern architecture style that has ornaments as pure modern style, is not appropriate, beside the process of development of this kind is not happening in Indonesia. To call this as postmodern style, nonetheless, in Indonesia this term is often avoided to anticipate a misunderstanding in society. So this `modern` architecture style in Indonesia will appear as `Indonesian modern architecture style` with characters as follows:</p>
<p>    It pays big attention to function, based on the activity pattern of the dweller or user<br />
    It has a big attention to building materials that are used to bring the desired aesthetic<br />
    It has the analogy of machine in the arrangement and development of space<br />
    It avoid ornaments {if it is modern style}, or use ornaments {if postmodern}, or being called `modern ethnic architecture`, `modern Balinese architecture`, etc.<br />
    It simple shape and ornamentation or vanishing `unnecesssary`d details as far as desired by the designer or the owner of the building</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Modern day technology allows for a more complex design when creating the patterns of geometrical shapes that are used for the production of buildings. In the present day the modern perspective leaves a lot of consideration out of the process, with the design of buildings in common areas of living. In retrospect the schooling of an institutional system, had no windows, in the original part of the school, for natural sunlight to enter into the classes, or hallways. This reflection goes into the structures of the modern day civilized areas, of the economically focused on construction of buildings, to not have the natural habitat of nature, present. The comparison is dependent on the view of what is considered important.</p>
<p>There is a connection from the classical days of the design of building to the modern day style. In the overall decision of the design, the whole inside to the outer accessibility area to include common, modern day, and casual access, but in timed sequenced. Making available the areas of use for whatever purpose chosen, in the designated parts of the building. This accessibility includes the population of the area surrounding the building; availability of such a resource is a step towards combining a highly technological possibility, with a social aspect. By integrating and applying a technological implementation, to include a larger mass of people, is in need of the insights of the many different degrees of intuitional thinking. A process that should, as a principal include the natural light of the sun, as a devised source of the natural habitual construction of the design.<br />
<span id="more-10"></span><br />
Architecture is a perspective in one view, of what is considered contemporary art. The style or design of the homes across the market that has a demand or need of the usually accepted form of what is considered, &#8220;enough.&#8221; This is a reflection of the society based value system that could be utilized for a broader understanding of living within proximity of others. There is a thread of the institutional factors of the development of the higher ends of society. Which spends on the majority of the manufacturing singularities, which is a process that includes the debts, in the amount spread out in the purchases, such as homes.</p>
<p>In a concept, architecture can be a reflection on the historical value that brought the first inclusion of art into the creation of buildings. In this art integrated type of creating a building was a combination; with what was held as important to the people,</p>
<p>who were in relation to the structures. The connection to the economy of a city, and, or the rulers of the nation, and to the creators, was a valued construction that was symbolic for the accomplishments of a technological state of the art, design.</p>
<p>In knowing the relation to human life and the good emotional states provided by the natural world, invites a concept for the environment of a habitual atmosphere, to be a vital reason for life in the design. This is according to the mass numbers of people that are spread out across the world, but have a certain place where they call home. The place from where they originated in decent of ancestry heritage. The inclusion of a place for the goodness of living, can be as the commonwealth of investment of a society, that can respect the artistry of architecture, as a place of healthy living in relation to the other life forms in the natural environmental surrounding.</p>
<p>Looking to the history of then, when the days of living was as though the king kept the city, and gave the protection of the people in his care. As too the surrounding area was in relation towards the other people in the environmental relation towards other nations of the area. Why should a government provide material to other countries, when the government can construct the buildings, and be in the development plans of a whole situated place, that is available for accessibility, for commercial, recreational, and habitual living? Instead of taxing people and major corporations &#8211; in fractions &#8211; when where those industries and individuals invest in the markets of other countries, and are accumulating billions of net worth each year?</p>
<p>Architecture has the value in the accessibility of common living in relation to the structure of time in the availability of the quality of life. Being able to live in an integrated area, that is, in a concept of homes and the buildings of development, is an investment for the health of a community and a larger whole of society.</p>
<p>Today people can look back and see the integration of society, at the time of the constructed architectural building of magnificent artistry. The modern day style of building, is in a transitional state of awakening, to the mass market of the many billions more of people, now alive today around the world. Including the same freedoms depicted in the creation of the most magnificent buildings has a connection to the ever-closing fast paced future of economical arising construction of habitual designs. Can the new forms of buildings, which, could be built with the availability of the material from the very government, that, could provide the accessible tools, be used for the collaboration or individual and personal approach of designs?</p>
<p>In the aspect of the individual and personal approach the architecture of a home should have the geometrical beauty of the natural sunlight being accessible for the person who is building the home. Major projects of construction should reflect the personal design of homes; the architectural blueprint should be effective in every space created. The future is a place of vast possibilities and the architect of buildings to hold masses of people, can be an accessible and available places of society integrated interaction of schooling, work, and recreational activities.</p>
<p>In the opposite subjection, the housing of the masses of people can be an isolating closed in and degrading dark place that can seem like in all absolution as a penitentiary for the whole of society and the individual soul. The solution is in the design of a plan, and in the creation of freedom in the basis of what is considered and implemented as important. When accounting for the larger scores of people who could benefit in the production of architectural buildings, that is possible with the ever increasing technological advancements in the creation of buildings that are both: accessible, and available.</p>
<p>The past shows of many great artistries of then modern man, today shows the evolution of the creations and in the materials used in the constructions. Tomorrow things get refined and there are even more breakthroughs, in the state of the art of architectural design and building. Examining the history and seeing how the created designs, had their place in the valued system of the people then. To now the influence, shows that the political and religious sectors were involved in the concepts that first started as a line from a pencil on a paper and became the cities of today, designed on a blueprint.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This article will give a brief introduction to architecture, its origins and a look at how important it is in the world today and in the past.<br />
Architecture is the practice of design buildings and other physical structures. It is often considered a form of art and science due to the massive amount of technical knowledge required to implement a design that has been created from nothing.<br />
Architects have many factors to consider when constructing a building such as mass, texture, materials, light/shadow, cost, construction and technology. All of these factors are manipulated in order to create an end design that appears both functional and aesthetically pleasing.<br />
<span id="more-8"></span><br />
A very important part of modern architecture is that it is not merely a visual art form. Complete architecture takes into account all of the human senses as well as the environment around the structure, and management of power, water and other utilities. There is also a common concept among architects that the art cannot exist in a vacuum and that it must have context, surroundings and contrasts to be complete.</p>
<p>Although architecture is not widely recognised as an &#8220;important&#8221; and &#8220;popular&#8221; profession it is in fact one of the most influential and widely recognised jobs throughout history. Almost everything we know about ancient civilisation is based upon what we have found in and about it’s architecture and there are countless political and cultural symbols known primarily for their structural achievements such as the Pyramids of Egypt and the Roman Coliseum. Even modern cities and locations are both visited and known by architectural landmarks such as the Opera House of Sydney and the Empire State building of New York. </p>
<p>The history of architecture is also extremely interesting, as human technology and scientific and mathematical understanding increases, so to did our ability to build wonderful buildings. Architecture was born out of a combination of needs, such as shelter, security and worship and means, mainly the local building materials and physical ability. Early architecture was mainly vernacular architecture, a special type of architecture which is based around local needs and means. As it evolved the classic civilisations were born and great time and effort put into crafting areas of religious or political significance and even back in these times architecture was more than just a visual product. The roman Coliseum was designed so that all of the thousands of crowd members could see and hear the action at the centre and the way it amplifies sound was no accident.</p>
<p>As time passed architecture developed more and more with medieval structures like the castle and fort proving architecture had a place on the battle field as w ell as he city floor. During this period architects, especially in Europe, began to form guilds (as many craftsman did then). These guilds were design to help architects work together and achieve more monumental things, a practice that is still in society today in the form of architect partnerships.</p>
<p>In the renaissance architecture became a very personal affair and moved quickly away from war and religion. Many famous architects are from this period as this marked the start of buildings recognising their architects with individuals such as Palladio and Brunelleschi going down in history.</p>
<p>Today architecture is everywhere, almost any public building is professional designed and many compete for recognition inside their respective cities. There is massive emphasis on certain elements such as energy efficiency, environmental blending and the use of environmentally friendly construction materials. Design is also becoming increasingly advanced with superstructures like the Burj Al Arab 7 star hotel.</p>
