Postmodernism is an architectural and cultural movement that rejects the pure, functional simplicity of earlier modernism in favor of more complex, eclectic designs that mix historical styles and references. It matters because it represents a significant shift in how architects and artists approach design, incorporating playful and varied influences—as seen in buildings like the SIS headquarters in London, which blends 1930s industrial design with ancient temple aesthetics.
