After years of studying architecture in college and graduate school, Robert Tirgan became the president of The Modern Edge, Ltd. Although the company is relatively new, Robert Tirgan is working towards building a world-class architecture company. His interest in architectural theory and deconstruction in 21st-century design has aided his vision in designing deconstructivist structures.

Deconstructivism is a postmodern architectural style that involves the fragmentation and manipulation of a building’s surface. It is characterized by the absence of structure and harmony in a design. The form which emerged in the late 1980s is a move away from the modernist form of architecture, which prescribed that the construction of buildings follow certain rules and forms.

The form is influenced by the thoughts of the French philosopher Jacques Derrida, who rejected the idea of a rigid meaning. He believes that the meaning of things exists only because of the context in which they exist. Therefore, buildings should not only be built upwards, but they can now also have disorganized structures.

In the twenty-first century, deconstructivism has created space for structures that defy rules, creating a better aesthetic and adding to the beauty of a generation. Among such designs are Walt Disney Concert hall by Frank O Gehry, Beijing National Stadium by Herzog and de Meuron, and Parc de la Villette by Bernard Tschumi.
