Question

Colin Rowe compared two of these buildings in a paper titled for the mathematics of (15[1])ideal examples of them. Load-bearing walls were eliminated from one of these buildings with a rectangular floor plan punningly called “Dom-Ino.” (15[1])The turning radius of the Citroen influenced the design for the base of (-5[1])one of these buildings by an architect who likened these (-5[1])buildings to machines. That architect collaborated with Pierre Jeannaret on one of these buildings in Poissy [PWA-see] that stands on pilotis and has a free (*) floor plan, some of the five principles espoused in Towards a New Architecture. Another of these buildings constructed over a Pennsylvania waterfall was designed for the Kaufmann family by Frank Lloyd Wright. For 10 points, name these buildings, one of which was designed by Le Corbusier to be the Savoye family’s residence. (10[2])■END■
