Paris
In collaboration with:
Architektenunie
In the first year after his election in 1981, François Mitterrand launched in Paris a construction operation of such size as France since Napoleon III and Louis XIV no longer had experienced. ‘Les sept grands travaux “would change the architektuurlandschap in France thoroughly. “Style Mitterand? … On verra bien … On le saura à la sortie “, the evasive reply of a president whose architektuurvoorkeuren was known.
Pei’s pyramid, cube Sprechelsen, Globe Fainsilber. Pure forms, precisely dimensioned Fiori without peer. “… Des formes tranquilles …” The most important of these projects have been completed or are nearing completion. Hence, the moment seemed favorable to align this year our architektuurreis Paris. It is a journey filled, which besides the ‘presidential projects’ also several recent but also some “historical” modern buildings are discussed.
