The local context

Postmodernist in Paris

Paris's 2 Postmodernist buildings take the style in boldly theatrical directions. Manuel Nunez Yanowsky and Miriam Teitelbaum's Police Station — a public safety building dressed in playful classical quotations — subverts expectations of institutional architecture. Michael Holley's Olympiades complex, while primarily Brutalist in its concrete megastructure, incorporates Postmodernist elements in its mixed-use programme and elevated pedestrian platforms that reimagine the relationship between building and street.
