TYPOLOGY OF THE LATEST FACADE SYSTEMS AND THEIR INFLUENCE ON THE PLASTIC LANGUAGE OF ARCHITECTURE OF THE XXI CENTURY

Abstract

Raising the problem. The article reveals the issues of the evolution of means and techniques that affect the expression of the artistic and tectonic properties of architecture of the XXI century. The article notes the influence of the factors of the mid-19th − early 20th centuries, which gave impetus to the manifestation of the facade as a separate autonomous structure of the building body. The question of determining the typology of the latest modern systems is becoming increasingly important. The review and classification analysis of innovative facade systems of the XXI century has been little studied. This data is fragmented and improperly structured. Purpose. The main goals of the article are to analyze the existing varieties of facade systems, describe their characteristic qualities, identify and define various types of external fencing structures in the architecture of the XXI century. The plastic language of modern architecture is expressed in the classification of the evolution of external enclosing structures. This goal will be achieved by studying the facade systems of the XXI century in terms of their specific characteristics and functional purpose; analytical work. Conclusion. The architecture of the XXI century is primarily focused on the issues of ecology and energy efficiency, which are the main landmarks for our time. New structural systems and materials address these issues. The traditional concept of "tectonics" is applied to the artistic properties of how structures work, but in modern architecture, the structures themselves are usually hidden from the viewer. Therefore, the issue of "tectonics" in modern architecture does not yet have an unambiguous understanding, which requires further study. So, the types of structures of external fences given in the article require further broader research and determination of their classification features.
