A Columbus, Ohio resident, Robert Tirgan is a graduate of Arizona State University and holds a bachelor of arts in architecture. Robert Tirgan is the president of The Modern Edge, Ltd. In his free time, he studies architecture trends and deconstructivism.
Deconstructivism is a term that appeared in the 1980s. It is a way of destroying or demolishing a building for rebellion or structural reasons. Unlike other architecture philosophies, deconstructivism does not follow a straight set of rules. It aims to unlock all the possibilities of a structure to acquire as many forms and shapes from a building.
The philosophy was created by Jacques Derrida, who combined Russian Constructivism and its asymmetry of geometry with modernism. The first structures of constructivism appeared at the Parc De La Villette competition, where Bernard Tschumi, Derrida, and Eisenman designed some buildings of the movement. The movement was recognized even more in 1988 at the MOMA Deconstructivist Architecture Exhibition, which featured many structures and designs of Zaha Hadid and Peter Eisenman.
