Research on the Calatrava’s Architecture Design of Public Space

Abstract

Among the different art design categories, architectural design that combines technology, aesthetics and function is the most complex one. Social space should be taken into discussion, and rethink the significance of architecture in modern design from a macroscopic perspective. Focusing on the architectural design of Santiago Calatrava, this article tries to talk about the functionality, practicality, artistry, and sociality of contemporary public spaces. In addition to basic survival needs, the architectural design should focus on the publicity and individuality at the same time. Form, content, and function of public space are ways to create new sensibility which helps in the modern society.
