Non-Western Modernisms
Functionalism is an architectural and design philosophy that emphasizes the importance of a structure's function over its form. This approach argues that buildings and urban spaces should be designed based on their intended use, prioritizing practicality and utility while minimizing unnecessary ornamentation. It reflects a broader modernist ideology that seeks to break from traditional styles and focuses on rational solutions to social and environmental needs.
