Analysing Deconstruction in Architecture: Works of Peter Eisenman and Bernard Tschumi

Abstract

This research aims to understand different interpretations of philosophy of deconstruction in architecture. Deconstruction has been subjected to lots of crticism and has been attached to the notion of confusion. It will understand the philosophical underpinnings of deconstruction and its application in architecture . It will analyze approaches of Peter Eisenman and Bernanrd Tschumi for the understanding of the translation of deconstruction into architecture. It will also look into the crticisms wavering around deconstruction for its ambiguous nature to provide comprehensive study on this topic. Overall, the research contributes into a better understanding of the relationship between architecture and philosophy, and translation of deconstruction into architecture.
