DR1974:0002:006:001-024
Description:
- This album consists of transfer lithographed contract drawings - mainly plans, but also elevations, sections, and sectional elevations - for Hôtel Sauvage, Paris. The hôtel is U-shaped in plan with two pavilions connected by a monumental entrance hall and staircase which face a central "cours d'honneur". The hôtel's exterior has a rusticated "rez-de-chaussée", mansard roofs, and is embellished with classical features including arched and pedimented windows, pilasters, entablatures, and Corinthian columns. The sectional drawings show lavishly decorated interiors. The revisions and notations on the transfer lithographs of this album suggest that they were probably the architect's copy.

Description:
Project described by Christian de Bonnefoi, Encyclopaedia Universalis 2000 in Journal de l'Atelier d'Architecture (USTO) as follows: "En 1927-1928, il élabore une série de projets utopiques pour le bord de la Seine. [...] Un projet pour un "immeuble à habitations et garage" qui pouvait être édifié sur un terrain vaste de 32 000 mètres carrés comprenait six cents appartements, un garage pour quatre mille voitures, quatre salles de tennis, un restaurant et une piscine. Ces projets représentent de vastes organismes urbains où la typologie pyramidale est envisagée à très grande échelle. Ces formes englobantes abritent des équipements qui transforment la ville en cité futuriste...".
