THE EVOLUTION
Eclecticism was the first step to self expression through architecture, It was the first prototype of sandbox in Architecture. It was limited only to the
imagination and known styles. It was constantly evolving and innovating itself
These are the words that perfectly describe what eclecticism is. It was still recognized this time, as it was both widely respected and rejected.
Eclectic Architecture uses revamped ideas from almost all styles from architectural movement, combining them to form odd pieces of artworks. Such as classy pillars of greek order topped with arch that is so baroque, or arches with gothic keystones and persian pillars. The outrageous pairing of contrasting styles of those era, is what separated eclecticism to other movements even more. It can be classy, luxurious, exotic. You choose.
BAROQUE ARCHES
PERSIAN PILLARS
GREEK ORDERS
VICTORIAN STYLE
Sagrada Familia also have 3 grand façade ( main face of buildings ) the nativity façade to the east, passion façade to the west and the glory façade to the south.
In contrast to the Nativity façade, the passion façade is austere plain, and simple with ample of bare stone.
“What’s most beautiful about Eclecticism is that it can exist in its most alien form, limited only the bounds of our imagination, utilizing what’s in the past to make a worthwhile piece of art.”
