      An example of how a form has been directly derived from a certain function is the reconstruction of houses for families who lost their homes after the earthquake of September 19th of 2017 in Mexico City, Oaxaca and Guerrero.

      Money was an important factor of decision making and so basic necessities and a smart use of square meters were put before aesthetics.

      Another example of “forms follows function” in a very different context is the stool designed by Lina bo Bardi. She designed a chair with the least possible support material.
