BLOBITECTURE

-


The term "blob architecture" is a combination of the phrases "blob" and "architecture." Blobitecture is an architectural style that features structures with completely distinctive, organic forms, typically resembling a blob or an amoeba. Blob architecture, blobism, and blobismus are all terms used to describe this form of architecture.

21st Century Architecture

Blobitecture and Blob architecture (also known as Blobism) are words for a post-modern architectural style popular around the millennium's turn. This is a type of Bionic Architecture that was possibly influenced by improvements in digital graphics and 3D shapes, as well as nature and natural forms.

Blobism is a design trend that does exactly what it says on the tin. This blobby, curving design style has the appearance of a live, breathing entity. This is a costly design that requires custom-made materials and trained craftspeople to construct. It is most commonly seen in huge buildings. As a result, good instances of Blobitecture in the wild are quite rare!

Blobitecture Buildings

Blobism began in 2002 and has remained popular to this day. Only found in huge buildings, such as concert halls, museums, and large spaces. It is, perhaps, the pinnacle of twenty-first-century architecture.

Kunsthouse Graz (2003) – Sir Peter Cook & Colin Fournier



Locals refer to this art gallery as the "friendly alien." It's a stunning structure. It's completely 'different' from anything else around it. It has a blue acrylic exterior covered with light panels that illuminate the skyline at night. This magnificent structure and art museum may be seen in Graz, Austria.

Xanadu Houses (1979) – Roy Mason

This isn't a Blobitecture home, but it could be an early illustration of the style's inspiration. This bizarre experimental home seems more like something out of Star Wars than a practical dwelling. This style was probably certainly influenced by Blob Architecture.
The 1970s were a watershed moment in architecture, with a lot of hit-or-miss results. This Xanadu house is visually appealing and has many unique elements, but rather than copying it, it may be wiser to learn from it and build upon it.

  Cement is a powerful adhesive or binding substance that is used as the major ingredient in concrete. Concrete is an important component in foundations, constructions, roads, bridges, highways, embankments, and other construction projects. Cement output continues to expand every year, owing to its critical role in construction and urban development. Cement manufacturing is a substantial source of industrial air pollution, despite its importance. Clinker manufacturing, a fundamental element in cement, is a major producer of noxious gases, particularly carbon dioxide. Green Cement Provides the Answer As part of an effort to reduce the hazards posed by emissions, the cement manufacturing process can be modified to drastically reduce emission levels. Green cement is a type of cement made using a "carbon-negative production technique." Green cement, in other words, is cement manufactured as the end result of a technologically sophisticated process that minimizes emissions during ...

VASTU VIDYA  what is Vastu vidya? This can be defined as a Sanskrit term for a Vedic architectural system that is important in both yoga and Hinduism. It's been compared to architecture's version of yoga. Vastu vidya is a vast knowledge system of architectural designs that date back to ancient India and combines both Hindu and Buddhist ideas. Hindu temples, as well as the layout of towns, gardens, houses, stores, and public areas, were designed using ancient Vastu shastra principles. The goal of Vastu vidya is to ensure that architecture is in harmony with and incorporated into the natural environment. It aims to bring a balance of the Five Elements into architecture, which yogis believe make up the universe. This is thought to aid in the flow of positive energy and harmony within the structure. Vastu vidya is a system that integrates classical science, astrology, and metaphysical beliefs. It takes into account the sun's and moon's effects, as well as wind direction and...
