Attribution
Nathan Silver
Publication Details
Book, MIT Press, 1994
Description
This is the story of how France’s famed cultural icon, one of the most controversial and supremely public buildings of the century, was designed and built. Not just a book about a building but about the making of a building, this fresh, heterodox means of inquiry is a holistic reading of the intricate process of creating architecture in contemporary society that brings to light its human story, encompassing its stylistic, historical, technical, and social aspects.

Jean-Louis Cohen ; [translated by Kenneth Hylton]
