My fav buildings
- I highly recommend visiting Le Corbusier’s Unite d’Habitation in Marseille, France. It’s one of my favorite buildings. It’s a site that includes colorful internal streets, shops, double-height living rooms, and a striking concrete roof garden with kids playground, a theater stage, and a swimming pool.
Other modern and brutalist buildings I loved. (I believe that photographs seldom do justice to architecture. Instead of Google searching, save them on Google Map for an in-person visit)
- Convent La Tourette by Le Corbusier in Lyon, France (tour)
- CopenHill by BIG in Copenhagen, Denmark (go skiing in winter)
- The Barbican Centre in London, UK (go to exhibit/theater)
- Casa de Musica by OMA in Porto, Portugal (go to a concert or take the tour)
- Arcosanti by Paolo Soleri, 1h North of Phoenix, AZ (stay there, details on their site)
- Lobe Block, Berlin, Germany (go for a yoga or get food at the the canteen)
- Casa Gillardi by Louis Barragan, Mexico City (tour)
