Post Fordism



The word Post-Fordism is clearly originated from the word Fordism. Fordism is the period where everything is made from the factory, in another word is the period of mass production. This mass production is start from the Henry Ford who own the Ford car company. He produced the ford car that every car has the same shape. Since then the mass production started.

Nevertheless, Post-Fordism and Fordism is totally not the same. For the reason that people is not make from factory, so everyone has their own identity and has their own style. No one wanted to use the same thing as the others. So, The post-Fordism begins.

Post-Fordism is the factory made as same as the Fordism but is the way that it has it own identity and the system inside the random style. The design of the post-Fordism seem to has no repetition and because of the technology in this period allow the architect to have a crazier ideas and to build the building with the complex form.

The post Fordism create the different atmosphere to the area and it remain the identity of itself. In the fact that people wants to have something that represent themselves even the small thing like keychain of even the water glass , bags , telephone and almost everything that people want to present themselves differently. So for the house or the building is the same. No one wants to have exactly same house with the neighbor. Even though the house cost more or take longer time to construct, but I think it is worth it to remain your identity.
