Since medieval period they have structure which became iconic and which defined as a representative symbol of a cultural period where built with vision and purpose like in religion and for the highness of their sovereign . In religion, churches built from 12th to 16th century during Gothic, Romanesque and Renaissance era became the Iconic in realm of architecture. But today when it say Iconic structure or buildings it reflect a grandeur form or might be those buildings became Iconic because it designed by a renowned or a superstar Architect these contemporary became a generic medium in architecture today but despite of grandeur form its often criticized because most of the form associated with irregularity or somehow distorted which figured out discomfort and unbalancing, moreover, some Iconic form interfered the true aesthetic, symmetry and even to physics which resulted questionable genuinely and strengthen of those structures, these would be the dilemma behind contemporary architecture.
Regarding contextual architecture, it is quietly same as the aesthetic of iconic, its explicitly address the function and design abide to its surroundings. Contextual architecture has unique role that dominated to its neighbors. But there’s confusing regarding to this contextual identity because some Architect disregard or would not confide the principles and not precisely conduct the contextually of their design that if it is belong truly to its site before it build. Architect Frank Geary is one among of many Architect whose criticized to his design because many of those structure designed looks incorporate the elements wherein, it would not echoes to the rhythm of its surrounding.
Technological Architecture associated the structure with the used of newest and vastly materials which make clear many buildings industrial aesthetic, Indeed it should a true triumph of modernism which reflect the product of a new architecture and address integral part design in the way of understanding of facades. One good example is Centre Pompidou in Paris, it looks like unfinished because of the steel holds some of the elements but it highly motivated form. meanwhile, the selection materials within technological feeds architectural enthusiasm but in a way of expensive and seems over used of construction materials but it precisely considerate the strengthen of a one structure.
