Abstract
The research of Fernand Pouillon, great builder of important realizations constituting large parts of the city is still today extremely topical for the different themes that he puts into effect in his architecture. From the problems of construction to those of the organization of construction sites up to the theme of the construction of the architecture of urban space as sequences of places composed hierarchically between them. An architect of vast production, in his prolific career he was able to maintain a clear and clearly identifiable theoretical line in all his achievements with extreme consistency and clarity of purpose. Uncommon ability that distinguishes the best designers of architectural works. His is a compositional and formal coherence that, although modified, is a project in the project. The reiteration of the forms, of the structural elements such as the essence of architecture or the stereometric volumes juxtaposed between them, are a fundamental part of his vocabulary. His proposal is based on the need for a return to the concrete, to a non-self-referential architecture, "graphic and abstract".I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
