Since many pieces of interesting architecture work come out, either the architecture have been built, or the virtual architecture will be build in future, they are successful received more and more attentions from public. And people who interested in architecture and update with the latest design work are not only the architects, designers and art students. Architecture in the people’s mind, is equal with beauty, fashion, but not only a place for protect people from bad weather or wild animals, it was not a place for people to survive anymore, today, architecture become to a core of bring inspiration into real word. But certainly, design and build more new forms is not only to create a beautiful atmosphere, it has greater contribution than this.
Firstly, many new material and technologies invented during build an organic formed architecture. For example, the national aquatics centre in Beijing, which also known as “water cube”, there are many challenges during built it. The structural and thematic leitmotiv of this project is related to water, and in the daytime, the national aquatics centre looks as a blue transparent cube, while at night it is a crystal piece of architecture with LED-lit bubbles. To create this effect for this architecture, architects have to invite the suitable material and technology to deal the problem. Therefore, for the external, architects chosen clad with the inflatable material transparent "teflon" material known as ethylene tetrafluoroethylene (ETFE), to cover the steel frame and create the effect what they want. However, the negative of using the material ETFE can grow mould and be ineffective in muting external noise, but the architect team conducted extensive tests and making some adjustments to the material that would reduce the acoustic impact of outside noise. The material was also shown to be superior in terms of lighting and thermal efficiency, and will protect the internal steel members from exposure to the harsh chlorinated aquatic environment preventing their corrosion, resistant to fire and severe heat. Also, it is material can self-cleaning in nature as the friction coefficient of the material prevents the dust from forming a layer on the material and rain can easily clear away the dust.
Secondly, the invention of design tools can do a great favor to architects and designers, especially the drawing software. For example, the 3ds max, is drawing software can help designers to visualize how their design turn to reality and can save a lot time in drawing. It makes the design more clear to show to clients, they do not need to image, because the drawing tool can make the virtual looks exactly as the real one. For instance, merely like the future concept buildings, designers use drawing software to draw their ideas and finished work down, and the public can easily understand thru the drawings. This is a rapid developing modern world, and it never ending changes and improvement, the virtual drawings can let people know well about the design before build. Also for the designers, they can be famous because the reality virtual drawings, but do not need wait someone adopt their design to real world.
Moreover, another contribution is people’s desire about new formed architecture make architecture style become more international. People willing to see more fantastic building have being design or build, thus they pay close attention on the architecture and design filed. Also, this have to owe for the media, more books and magazine published and translated to different languages, in order people from different area can receive the latest news and knowledge about the new architecture. And, there are many websites, and social networks spread the news about architecture as well, they even can update daily which faster than books or magazine, so have a great number of people join in the group with the same interests to learn, share and discuss on the new pieces of architecture or design work. They are also the reason that why architects or designers can be famous during a very short time, and own the fame in worldwide, because they are the platform to give an opportunity to architects and designers to publish their work. No one stop seeking the publicity and reputation in their professional filed, especially the designers and architects are face to the more and more keen competition, and the duration for public to interested in one architecture is shorter. So merely design a wonderful piece of work cannot bring a forever reputation and fame for a designer or an architect in the modern world, so how to keep famous is not only about the good ideas, is about how to show off. As a result, designers need to design something impressive and rememberable in form, but invite the function after design the form. Form is playing a very important role in the contemporary architecture, and the form becoming more extraordinary, which means the ornamentation is no longer a crime, but design an ordinary form for architecture can consider as a big failure.
