Abstract Today the formless form in architecture has been revealed. Although it has contradictory characteristics, the formlessness is considered as a way to the new architectural form. But such an attempt has been stranded with inappropriateness. The formlessness has been regarded as a new method that frees the architectural form from the traditional restraint. But it easily leads the form to the non-architectural one inasmuch as the formlessness also frees the architectural form from the ground of the architecture. Accordingly it is needed reflecting upon the meaning of formlessness and of the formless form.
In this context, this paper explorers the meaning of formlessness and present a practical way to the implementation of the formless form through the comparison of Greg Lynn’s with Bernard Cache’s concept.
