An Architectural Mime

Throughout the History of Architecture, France played influential roles, giving birth to some of the most famous architectural styles: Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, Rococo, Classical or Neo-classical, and presenting itself for the world to look up to. The paper talks about a transitory period of French architecture which is termed to be speaking architecture or Architecture Parlante that set bars for the Art Deco. Who were the architects which the French Revolution caught the spirit of? We find that most of the designs during the French Revolution, huge and gigantic in thoughts, have remained in their conceptual stage and have not been actually realised. What was the concept of the Cenotaph for a scientist who is believed to have changed the view of physical universe which we lay in? What does the Ideal City of Chaux cue at? With history slipping in time, the paper emanates the historical brief and that Architecture Parlante is not the thing only of the past. We must consider throughout history till date how our built environment is assigned, conveys meanings and relates to the inhabitants
