Week 10 Response

Le Corbusier’s idea of Pilotis appeals most to me as it is what allows for the following points. By taking care of the structure first, it allows the forms of the design to be free of the responsibility of responding to structural conditions. This is a sharp contrast of prioritization when compared to other movements. As well it shows a clear incorporation of technology into the evolving design, by using new methods with beton arme there is less necessity for the design to consider structure which allows it to move more towards abstraction of form.
