Abstract

Postmodern culture was born as a current to combat the Modern Movement and overcome the severity of the so-called International Style and its architecture. Hence, it is proponed not to enforce any rules or style reasons regarding architecture. This has brought with it a series of urban transformations disconnected from the urban experience that the individual had been having until this moment. They change the time and space of the city to become a mere stage of the society of the spectacle.
