| Abstract |
This study investigated the characteristics of the non-linearity and uncertainty elements of modern architecture through Zaha Hadid's MAXXI. Based on Bergson's fluid concepts, various types of space were observed through such factors as optical illusion, elements' movement, and observers' movement. In addition, the fluidity characteristics of MAXXI could be depicted with such architectural expressions as explosion, distorted geometry, the fluidity of space, compression, boundary, landscape, and the condensation of collages. Through his MAXXI, Zaha Hadid pursued a fluid balance in modern architecture, which contains an unpredictable relationship between architectural forms and space, and which satisfies the basic function and requirements of the museum. He induced the new value of modern architecture and adopted urban elements by reinterpreting the historical characteristics of Rome with modern spatial terms and forms while maintaining a relationship with the past. |
