France has become the principal destination for people interested in contemporary architecture. Unashamedly modern buildings have evolved, particularly in historic areas, and have been accepted as contributions to the continuing evolution of city areas. No other European country has achieved such successful integration of the modern and historic.
Modern Architecture in Historic Cities explores the factors which contribute to the presence of contemporary architecture in historic areas. The author focuses on central topics, including: the crucial involvement of professional bodies, such as the Architectes des Bâtiments de France, and their relationship with elected representatives; the resources available in historic areas; mechanisms for design control; the ideological role of heritage and contemporary architecture as symbols of culture and progressiveness; and the public sector’s input in decisionmaking and its commitment to both conservation and the promotion of new architecture.
