Paris Trip 18th-20th April 2009

Paris Trip 18th-20th April 2009 Function vs Decoration




center pompidou is great in my opinion,
I admire the idea of skin and bones,
it is a brave building
its exposed skeleton of brightly colored tubes for mechanical systems*

Talking to Parisians, not everybody over there like it,
they think it is an ugly building, unlike Notre Dame,
which its highly decorative style give more value and
pride to some of local people.





What is it really?
The quality of public architecture that people would embraces and admire...
