Ημερομηνία προβολής: Αυγ 30, 2015

At the top of a sloping garden is a mysterious white dome and an undulating glass façade: the headquarters of the French Communist Party built between 1965 and 1980 by Oscar Niemeyer. A fine example of the curtain wall designed by Jean Prouve, an extraordinary Central Committee room under the dome, some of the finest Parisian architecture of the period.
