Constructivism

Constructivism is an early 20th-century architectural and artistic movement that originated in Soviet Russia, emphasizing abstraction, functionality, and a focus on materials. It combined modern engineering principles with a social agenda, aiming to create designs that would serve the needs of a new socialist society. Constructivist architecture often featured bold geometric shapes, industrial materials like steel and glass, and an absence of ornamentation, reflecting the desire to build a romantic, forward-thinking environment.
