I don't believe in plonking "a Gehry here, a Gehry there", says Kerry Hill

- In our final movie from the AHEAD Asia awards last month, Australian architect Kerry Hill says he doesn't believe in "plonk architecture" and instead approaches every building differently.
Hill picked up the Outstanding Contribution Award at hospitality awards AHEAD Asia last month for his work on hotels and resorts across Asia.
He believes that his success working in the region is due in part to his practice's focus on creating contextually sensitive buildings that draw on local styles, building techniques and materials.
"We do not have a common architectural language," he says in the movie, which was filmed at COO hostel and bistro in Singapore.
"We like to think that each building is designed especially for its context and its place."
He adds: "I don't believe in what I call 'plonk architecture'. What I mean by that is a Gehry here, a Gehry there - architecture at home everywhere and nowhere. I feel that you need to perpetuate the traditions within the culture and material of a place through your architecture, so that it is appropriate."

"We do not have a common architectural language, we like to think that each building is designed especially for its context and its place. We select materials according to where we might be designing and building."

It's such a trivial gesture when it's coming from a guy who makes modern architecture.
Contextualizing means environmental controls like earthquake proofing your building in an earth quake zone. And maybe sourcing some wood locally. It doesn't mean you've escaped modern architecture and are now making pillars of high culture and tradition again. That era is dead.
Possibly the best architect ever
I think it is simply a contrast of styles. Yes Gehry's, Zaha's, and BIG's approach to architecture pretty much focuses on their design style itself. Kerry's approach as I observe is to integrate his principles strongly within the context.
We could also says "a Kerry here, a Kerry there, since he got a recognizable style. No matter how vary their details or materials are. The line could be a phrase or judge by it self.
Amazing.
Good sir
impressive
LOVE

Kerry Hill has a certain aesthetic that he "plonks" everywhere like every architect out there. Sure he may use local materials and methods unique to each site, but you can definitely see a Kerry Hill in all his works. Anyone who studies Gehry can see each of his projects are different from one another
The gehry projects are just slightly different from one another but easily recognizable everywhere as a ‘style’, architecture must be beyond style
Although you can glean differences, each of gehrys projects are also very similar to one another, and do have a recognizable design language that's quintessentially gehry.
You know nothing about architecture
@@XTSu-sl1bb nobody knows anything, it's all opinionated bs
@@jjjj5452 you know nothing about architecture
Well I mostly agree with him, but Gehry is an American architect, which means he is out of the American tradition of architects who like to express themselves just like Frank Lloyd Wright. As long as human beings themselves plonk there will be plonk architecture, so its more about cultural differences. A culture that values subtlety won't have plonk architecture, so If you don't like plonk architecture you have to argue with the culture that allows it. As long as we have capitalism we will have plonk architecture.
He’s actually Canadian
Gehry has said hes most influenced by Gaudi. That's what inspired his building's recognizable organic shapes. Gaudi is hardly out of an "american tradition"
Even if he wasn't taking from Gaudi. Its hard to draw a clear lineage of design language between ghery and Frank lloyd wright. They're totally different in so many ways.
The whole of Modern architecture is a product of capitalism/cheap manufacturing/industry/globalism. Modern architecture, the era of architecture we've yet to escape since it's advent, is arguably mainly plonk architecture, kerry included, since virtually all buildings are internationally sourced kits.
Can anyone explains what is a "plonk" architecture? I searched up the definition of the word but I still cannot understand.
@@jeffongsp i think plonk architecture refers to a building that is not of a specific place; it is "placeless." it's the kind of building that doesnt match its given context.
for instance, a frank gehry building will look like a wadded metal tissue regardless of whether its in Seattle, Australia, LA, or wherever. it will always appear an oddity, seemingly out of place, and will be moreso associated with the architect, than the city/place. it doesnt appear well integrated, and rather looks like something that could be anywhere, but was randomly plopped where it is.
wikipedia's definition of plonk art is "the term connotes that the work is unattractive or inappropriate to its surroundings- that it has been thoughtlessly "plopped" where it lies."
He was making some sense till he threw that cheap punch at Gehry!!! Not a very brilliant argument there, the wise man once said, let the eagle perch, let the hawk perch too and whoever tells the other not to do so, may their wing break!!!
Whenever an architect opens his mouth it's typically to trash a more famous architect. I mean it's really a meme at this point.
They all trash, buildings are averege and they speak a lot like thay made mega giga skyscraper...
I dont believe in planting a gehry here or there says not frank gehry
BORIIIING !!!
Minimalist trash buildings here and minimalist trash buildings there.
ColtraneTaylor how can minimalism can be considered trash compared to this throwaway full of rubbish society and architecture remains a mistery to me
You can't escape globalized trajectory of the world. Nobody has been able to stop modern architecture since it's advent.
