Jatiyo Sangsad Bhaban

À propos

Faits rapides: Louis Kahn devoted his final twelve years to this design, and construction continued for nearly eight years more after his death before the doors opened in 1982. Geometry rules the interiors, where circles, triangles, and arches cut into the walls so daylight falls in ever-changing patterns across the floors.

Points forts: Walk the lakeside path at sunset and watch low sunlight slide through the giant circular and triangular openings, throwing shifting geometric shadows across the concrete inside. Kahn made the walls glow from within by mixing white marble dust into the pour, so the surfaces seem to breathe light instead of just reflecting it.

Conseils d'initiés

• Berpakaianlah dengan sopan, tutupi bahu dan lutut, karena tidak diperbolehkan masuk dengan pakaian terbuka
• Datanglah setidaknya 30 menit sebelum tur dimulai, karena pemeriksaan keamanan bisa memakan waktu
• Abadikan pantulan kolam luar ruangan di pagi hari, saat itu bangunan tampak seolah mengapung di atas air
• Pada hari Rabu kompleks ditutup untuk pengunjung, jadi rencanakan kunjungan Anda di hari lain
