Abstract
This paper outlines the development of Critical Regionalism Concept, introduced by Kenneth
Frampton, whom a professor in history and architecture. His most influential achievement was a book
titled Toward A Critical Regionalism, that introduced critical regionalism theory/thought as a response
of globalization and universalization impact.
His thought was based on the worry of excessive impact of modernism and globalism, and political
situation at that time, causing buildings of western classic architecture style replaced by modern
architecture style as symbols of industrialism.
Critical Regionalism theory tried to put back architecture and buildings to the context and the
development of its surrounding, as an effort to strengthen local identity by seeing its potency and noticing
every details in buildings.
Now, this theory is widespread and developed by world architects. These architects succeed in
making modern architecture more tactile and tectonic, creating creative and tectonic structure's forms,
which able to counter universalism in architecture by placing back technology as instrument in
architecture
