Boullee of France work
16th century
Very neoclassical form
big and bold and balanced
yet not very green.
Organic...???
hmm
Would say it is necessarily an organic form
unless bare bones organic
Ah ha this precedes Sir Sanford flemmings
Standard time zones but it is suggestive of that
global order.
It also precedes chardins noosphere
Apparently it was a design for an opera house
but was never built as boullee was an architectural
theorist. More >
