<strong>Le</strong>cture 4: <strong>Le</strong> <strong>Corbusier</strong>, <strong>Palais</strong> <strong>des</strong> <strong>Congres</strong>-<strong>Strasbourg</strong>, France,1962-64<br />

<strong>Palais</strong> <strong>des</strong> <strong>Congres</strong><br />

What are the centrifugal forces in this drawing, or how are<br />

they evident?<br />

Can someone point out a drawing in the chapter that gives<br />

the sense of centripetal?<br />

“Unlike the rotation on the entry façade of La Tourette…the rotation developed at <strong>Strasbourg</strong> is<br />

no longer dialectical with respect to any frontal plane, but rather registers simultaneously as<br />

centripetal and centrifugal in plan and section.”<br />
