A natural formative basis to post-modern architecture

Within the cyclic order of history, the Modern Age may be seen to have an emphasis on constructive creativity contributing to its progression away from a natural formative basis for order.

As a fundamentally different paradigm to post-modern design approaches, a natural formative basis may be seen to embody the dual of 'organic ordering' and 'natural ordering': An inherent dualism in intuitive creative potential, the manifestation of which embodies truth, beauty and harmony.

'Natural ordering' is becoming increasingly important to energy conscious design of the post-modern age, representing a lost creative potential held latent by the emphasis on industrial-founded environmental control technology. / Master of Architecture
