VILLA SAVOYE - LE CORBUSIER

Dear readers and fans of architecture,

Yesterday I had the pleasure of taking a day trip to Poissy to visit a monument (in my opinion) located in a small industrial town named Poissy. It is, of course, the Villa Savoye built in 1929, designed by Le Corbusier. I had a great time taking photos. Here are some of them...

UNDERGROUND BASE ENTRIES

I am not sure why but I find this subject interesting architecturally, because it provokes many different feelings to people: curiosity, scepticisme, disbelief, fear, anger, and fanaticism. For those of you who do not know what this article is about, it's about the entries to underground military bases. An underground military base is a facility built underground by a government to conduct business in a discreet fashion. People who are interested by "Area 51" could probably give more detail, however, I just wanted to show these photos because the site is similar to Lautner's house in Mexico.

LOUIS KAHN

Recently trying to find inspiration from my native city of Philadelphia, I fell upon an interesting bit of information. Louis Kahn, a brilliant architect from Estonia, was based for a very long time in Philadelphia. If you are not familiar with his work, here are some of his famous pieces.

JOHN LAUTNER

Thought I would share some scans of work by one of my favorite architects, John Lautner.
