Summary:

Acheve' en 1956, le sie'ge de la Mutuelle Vaudoise a' Lausanne devient rapidement le mode'le de l'architecture administrative en Suisse. L'intention du mai'tre de l'ouvrage est clairement de'monstrative : on veut un ba'timent en mesure d'exprimer, par sa modernite' architecturale, l'image d'une socie'te' tout aussi moderne et dynamique. Jean Tschumi, figure cle' de l'architecture du XXe sie'cles, est a' l'œuvre. Be'ton arme' apparent ; dispositifs techniques de pointe ; flexibilite' des inte'rieurs. Ces ide'es sont savamment transpose'es dans le bel ensemble dit ± Le Ce'dre ', du nom du site, dans un cadre naturel d'exception que Tschumi saura valoriser. L'architecte compose avec les formes et les mate'riaux, les couleurs et les textures, selon une de'marche de tre's grande cohe'rence. Viendront s'ajouter une se'rie d'œuvres d'art admirablement inte'gre'es dans l'architecture, une ve'ritable ± œuvre d'art totale '. Le Ce'dre est l'un des ba'timents les plus ce'le'bre's en Suisse et au-dela', une de'monstration me'me. Cette premie're monographie consacre'e au ba'timent de Jean Tschumi souhaite lui rendre hommage.
