Ausschnitt über den "Palais Bulles" des ungarischen Architekten und Habitologen Antti Lovag (*1925) aus der Sendung "Häuser auf den Kopf gestellt" aus der ZDF-Dokumentationsreihe "Menschenskinder" von Wolfgang M. Ebert aus dem Jahre 1981.
Die auch als "Blasenpalast" oder "Bubble House" bekannte Villa befindet sich in Théoule-sur-Mer, rund zehn Kilometer südwestlich von Cannes auf einem steilen Küstenhang der Esterel-Halbinsel an der Côte d'Azur und war bis 2005 im Besitz des französischen Modeschöpfers Pierre Cardin. Das ganze Gebäude besteht aus rotbraun bemalten Betonblasen, die durch röhrenartige Gänge miteinander verbunden sind, dazwischen gibt es einen riesigen halbrunden Pool und obendrauf ein steiles Amphitheater, in dem 400 Zuschauer Platz haben.

  • Arghh the English subtitles end part way through. This man has made the houses I've been wanting to make since I was a child watching Barbapapa. I've only designed them on paper. I wish I could meet this man. At the very least, I wish I could see his home inside and out in person.

  • @angelcdp Sorry, I hadn't the time yet to finish the subtitles. Will catch up on soon and let you know.

  • @derinquisitor Aww thank you very much. I appreciate you taking the time to do that, and what you've already done. This is fascinating to me. I still want to make one of these houses. Maybe not so elaborate but a similar style.

  • Very interesting! Reminds me to geometry in polar coordinates. It's a pity that one don't teach this alternative mathematics in high school. Geometry in polar coordinates can discribe the forms of nature very well, e.g. flowers and snails.

  • This is what all houses should look like. More organic forms blend with nature far better than square/angled houses. A room full of curves is more soothing too as there aren't any right angles in nature.
