Expressionist architecture

Expressionist architecture is an innovative style that emphasizes emotional impact and individual creativity. It emerged in the early 20th century, characterized by bold forms, dynamic shapes, and unconventional materials that evoke feelings and stimulate the senses. Architects aimed to reflect human experience and spirituality through structures that often feature dramatic, distorted, or organic forms rather than traditional symmetry or classical aesthetics. The style values artistic expression, pushing boundaries to create buildings that are unique and visually striking, inspiring emotional responses and emphasizing architecture as a form of personal and cultural expression.
