Architecture is something that we always grow with as a part of our human life, like every other technology or thing in this world gets updated regularly like WhatsApp by adding something better and removing something that is not necessary to keep, futuristic architecture is a highly upgraded version of architecture to create an architecture not for the present but for the future.
The concept of futurism came to light in the early 19th century in Italy when a poet found it as a concept for the future, architecture very soon adapted the concept into its own style, and today we are witnessing the effect of the adaptation and Antonio Sant’elia and peter cook are some of the most famous futuristic architecture in the world.
Modern and futuristic architecture is almost similar but futuristic is just like out of the boundary, from elements used in the architecture to design concept everything seems highly advanced like quantum theories, current world architectures are highly engaged with futuristic building and believe that the world will be full of futuristic architectures in the near future.
Futuristic architecture is the concept of letting the generation build their own cities, letting them create what is best suitable for them that’s where the core philosophy of futuristic architecture lies in, to create sustainable buildings for the present and future rather than just adapting the past architectures and designs.
Highly creative design and usage of unusual materials are some of the common features of futuristic architecture, the Guggenheim museum is built with titanium which is an odd material in the world of architecture.
Architecture Philosophy
To build something that has less or no connection to the past or ancestral architecture, we are not eating foods that are thousand years old but why do we live in the style which found thousands and thousands of years ago? so they came up with the concept of futuristic to build for the current with a short span.
The usage of glass and steel was seen in modern architecture itself but making the same element in a very creative and unusual way is what futurism gave us, futuristic architecture lets the dream of architecture to go any extent until it matches the creativity, today we see a lot of buildings in the shape of fish or chocolate and much more, buildings like these were not possible before the birth of the futuristic architecture.
When it comes to materials used in the building though steel and glass are common, they used some other materials that are new to the entire architectural world like translucent concrete and bacteria building blocks, from bending concrete to aerogel they used every possible combination of materials to make it sustainable.
The design concept of futuristic architecture is one thing to amaze at with no proper principle because it lets the architects have their own principles in designing and construction without any pre manual, simply it gave the entire freedom to the architects.
Burj Khalifa
Burj Khalifa in Dubai is one of the most popular futuristic architecture and the highest skyscrapers in the world, who built something that is 829 meters high? that’s where the futurism lies for the craziest creativity and to make it possible one.
The concrete building is an example of making buildings that are adaptable and sustainable at the same time, Burj Khalifa probably saved more space in Dubai than any other building which is an additional benefit of futuristic architecture.
Shanghai Tower, the theme building in Los Angeles, and the Crystal in London are some of the famous futuristic architectural buildings in the world.
“Why not stay with the old methods and styles when we can create our own with our own creativity and freedom.”
Architecture is the form of design, plan, and construction, in general terms it is called the material of buildings and another physical form, like the saying Rome can’t be built in a day, it all started from there, even though architecture evolved from the first human of the world as their own shelter in documents the earliest form of architecture is found in Rome.
Like art, architecture is also in many forms and styles, like places, philosophy, and materials it also has many forms from ancient architecture style to futuristic architecture style it has a very long journey.
Architecture has many types according to country and time, let’s explore some of the core architecture types and their philosophy.
Organic Architecture
Falling Water by Frank Lloyd Wright
Organic architecture is a mature architecture type that connects humans with nature, the core philosophy and purpose of organic architecture is to keep humans in a harmonious state and nature which is around them, the first-ever organic architecture was established by the legendary architect Frank Lloyd Wright and most of his work are the earliest form of organic architecture.
He loved the sense of nature within the architecture so that people live in peace and always have a touch of nature with them today most of the world’s leading architects are adapted to the organic architecture style because of the purpose it serves.
Neoclassical Architecture
Neoclassical architecture is of very old architectural style and it is also more effective than many architectural types even today, it became famous for its highly fancy decorations, neoclassical is rooted in ancient Greece and Rome, and it became popular for its texture and simplicity along, with neutral color as its base architecture style and giant domes at the entrance made it to adapt and to display the royal of the building.
Decorated sculptures are considered a major part of the neoclassical architecture style, even today western countries and some parts of American countries adapted to neoclassical architecture.

Vernacular Architecture
This is like the DIY architecture style, rarely architects are involved in the vernacular architecture style, using all the available material around the building to construct it called vernacular architecture, every part of the world has its own way of vernacular architectural style, it is like language.
Modern Architecture
In the early ’20s, architecture adapted to the time and began to use modern materials like steel and glass for the architecture and also to survive the modern civilization, usage of steel and glass along with concrete cement made it look modern, stylish, and formal, by today most of the official architectures are adapted to the modern architecture all over the world.
Futuristic Architecture
Futuristic architecture is one of the fancy and mind-blooming architectural styles, when you get astonished by architecture it is called futuristic architecture, everybody needs something new which is never existed before, and futuristic architecture is just like that, something that has never been before.
Art, architecture, and design are the three core elements of architecture, it is not only the core functional elements of architecture but also for anything in this world, art is something that relates to all the things that are about to heal humans.
Our entire life revolves around art in many forms from what we hear to where we live everything is a fine-composed art.
ART
Art has a long history in civilization, it history about as early as when humans started a fire using stones, the earliest art forms are found as visual arts, the creation of paintings in rocks and drawing images in the sands are the earliest forms of art, even today the same visual art form is continuing in advanced and updated versions.
Anything that soothes the human mind and heart is art from music to drawing of a highly constructed building, the art then evolved into paintings with colors and then sculptures, rock paintings, and finally it evolved as digital paintings.
Some civilizations are even identified by their art form, ancient Greece is well known for its art and culture even today, the Europeans are well known for their achievement of art, and even today every person on earth admires their artwork, if we look back at the history there’s nothing but a pile of arts here and there, the efficiency of any civilization ever lived is determined by the art they left in the earth.
If we look deep into the way we live our life it evolves around art with or without our knowledge and the technology today helps us to connect with art more reliably than anywhere in history, it all started with that homo sapien who sketched rock using sharp-edged stones.
Art comes in many forms simply it just makes humans more creative by doing it again and again, if we are about to define art simply it is the form of expressing oneself, from kids starting artwork in school to paintings and sculptures protected in museum art have many forms and a long story to tell, today it attained digital level.
Art plays two major purposes self and motivation the self is an expression of oneself in many different forms, some people take the brush and just paint all day long without any purpose or without any motivation, they just express their opinions.
Another very important thing motivational art, as we can say art is of many purposes and forms even art is used as a political weapon, art used for communication, entertainment, politics, and social issues, in ancient Dadaism, surrealism and Russian constructivism used art as a political weapon in the early 20th century.
Today the core use of art is entertainment, cinema, music, and standup comedy and in that tall building in your city, art is there probably everywhere in the world around you.
Architecture
Architecture is the form of design, plan, and construction, in general terms it is called the material of buildings and another physical form, like the saying Rome can’t be built in a day, it all started from there, even though architecture evolved from the first human of the world as their own shelter in documents the earliest form of architecture is found in Rome.

Design
Design is something that gives life to the architecture, and architecture of anything from buildings to material objects, from clothes to shoes everything is designed by someone who is a little more creative than the one who is using it.
Like any other field design also has its own style and philosophy, it also has several principle steps to begin, and to conclude, there are two major part of the design in architecture which is exterior and interior design.
Interior Design
Interior design involves a lot of creativity and things to be done in a proper way according to the design type chosen, interior design have as much more than twenty-plus types but has core concepts like simplicity, modern, country, fancy, ethnic, and chaos we can sum up all of the interior architecture design concepts into this.
In architecture interior design has a major role to play, no matter what the architecture outside is we are going to live on the inside, so it does matter more that the interior design process is done according to the user preference.
Decorations, the color of paint, antiques, and objects chosen along with the style of furniture define the interior, the core purpose of the interior is to make sure it spreads peace, calm, royal, minimalism, and other such things.
Exterior Design
Exterior design is also a major part of architecture as it defines the outcome, before the architectural revolution in the mid-19th century there was no such thing called interior design it was all defined by the one who owned the architecture but the exterior design had been always there from the beginning.
From placing trees in the right place to the texture of the lawn near the car parking everything defines the exterior of any building, a lot of processes are being done to make the exterior design perfect or adaptable for the house or building.
There is another such thing while designing like color psychology which defines the major impact of design, each color holds a unique property like boldness, positivity, calm and peace, negativity, and much more, the entire design process revolves around only two major things, choosing the right color and choosing the right object to be placed at the right place.
Art, architecture, and design are a concept that revolves one around another, these three things not only define our lifestyle but revolves around our entire life from each and everything, Art is the core function of the two without it the other two will not function.
To conclude all three in a very simplified way art is the beginning (birth), architecture is the body and design gives it life, all three are evolved by the time being and transformed into something which is adaptable and acceptable.
Conclusion
Art is something that we cannot live without, whatever we do, hear, or see is some form of art, architecture is just a step ahead of it the essential part of life rather than just to satisfy our soul, the design is all about what we see from color to the lines in it and much more.
In the world of architecture, some people create their own world and show it to the people of the world, Zaha Hadid one of the most popular architectures for her own style and luxurious designs, If we look at all the greatest people in the world and amuse how they did it? They always had their own style and Zaha Hadid to a style that represented the luxury and royalty in the British and to the world.
Being born in a wealthy and reputed Iraq family on October 1, 1950, in Baghdad, Iraq, Zaha Hadid graduated in mathematics and then in architecture, the artist was not born but they built themselves into something that the world remembers.
Some architecture in the world represents the deepest image of the humankind, Zaha Hadid architecture is one such architecture, she often called the queen of the curve.
Futuristic Architecture
From the London Olympic Center to Sheik Zayed Bridge Abu Dhabi Zaha created her own world of architecture, she had the mind of creating the future and she did create, all the works of Zaha to represent the new age of architecture.
She uses the strongest material like steel and concrete and then makes it dance for her imagination, the curve in her buildings are trademark and tells the story of new-age architecture.
For her creative curve style, the Guardian magazine represented Zaha Hadid as “the queen of the curve”.

Dynamic Architecture
The architectural style that changes in accordance with the age we live in, is called dynamic architecture, Mathematics helped Zaha Hadid to create dynamic architecture with the right geometry to form the perfect curve we have ever witnessed in the world of architecture.
In all her works she describes the core imagination of art and uses all the usual material to create it.
Zaha Hadid works to look at
Olympics Center, London
If you ever go to London and see the mighty melodious wave-like center, the so-called Olympics center, it is one such work of Zaha Hadid the woman who changed the modern age architecture with her imagination.
Wangjing Soho, Beijing
This is one of China’s finest architectural works ever, the Wangjing Soho is a three-curved building with a wave-like structure and skins with steel, more like an illusion this architecture still holds the pride of Zaha Hadid.
Al Wakrah Stadium
It is one of Hadid’s designs before her death, al Wakrah Stadium is one of the main stadiums for the Qatar – 2022 World Cup, the design is like the usual Zaha Hadid futuristic architecture and it is inspired by the dhow pearl fishing boat style.

Zaha Hadid the only woman awarded the royal gold medal from the Royal Institute of British Architects, holds the Stirling prize and Pritzker Architecture Prize, apart from all her fame and pride, she created architecture and art which made the earth a whole new place to live and to remember.
Some people are remembered for a lifetime not for the money and popularity but for the things they created which impact millions of emotions and to learn something from it.
