Architecte

du maître de l'œuvre au disagneur

Edición de la obra Architecte

The architectural profession was born from the gap created in the sixteenth century between the designer and the contractor who, until then, were one: the master of the work. Louis XIV was accentuated by creating l'Académie d'architecture, and Convention et le Directoire by creating l'Académie des beaux-arts. During this evolution, professional bodies have favored an alliance with the political rather than the professional world power: over time, architects have abandoned some of which normally clear from their jurisdiction to contractors, engineers the offices of study, not to be reduced--in some cases--as providing the only drawing of the building permit. This book traces the long decline through examples.
