One of the most common architectural styles in contemporary cities is modern architecture. It arose as a reaction to Modernism, which was marked by its heavy use of ornamental and symbolic elements, and by its practical and mathematical design. The famed Bauhaus school of architecture and the International Congresses of Modern Architecture were the pinnacles of modern architecture.
This style, which arose in the early 1930’s, was intended to be thoroughly defined by the intellectuals who created it as a pure and functional way of making architecture: a building had to follow certain aesthetic rules in order to be considered modern. But as this style spread all over the world, it ended up being one of the most culturally diverse ways of making architecture to this date. One only needs to take a look at modern buildings located in different countries to realize that when modern architecture combines with specific cultural traditions, as well as climatic conditions, the results turn out to be anything but homogeneous.
Throughout the years, this architectural style has evolved greatly, mainly due to the specific characteristics related to each country’s cultural and social context, and it has become the highest form of modern vernacular architecture. The differences between each building not only arise due to cultural values, but are also related to climatic condition which ultimately, of course, have a very important impact in local customs- generating unique variants within the style This is the case of “tropical modern” architecture: a form of design based on modern architecture but which takes into account the specific needs that emerge due to the environment. These needs range from the selection of the building materials to the certain way of configuring interior spaces according to ambient temperature, humidity levels and the particular surroundings of the building.
