Pompidou Center

Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers created a very avant-garde building. It is around a gigantic parallelepiped that it deploys a steel frame, its walls in glass and clear colors. It can be perceived as a stack of metal structures whose implantation continues to strike some sensitivities.
In the facade, there are intertwined stays arranged in mesh which ensure the stability and the flexibility of the whole. The glass tubes supported by arches are traversed diagonally by: escalators, elevators, traffic galleries, ventilation and heating ducts. Each level is 7,500 m2.
