Claude Parent

Claude Parent , born at NeuillysurSeine, France, was a French architect known for his buildings featuring sloped floors, an aesthetic initially inspired by Parents discovery, with philosopher Paul Virilio, of World War II bunkers constructed along the Atlantic Wall that had accidentally slipped down sand dunes because of severe winter weather. Inside , you tumbled through a strange room the floor was so sloped that you couldnt tell whether what you were standing on was a slanted floor or a wall, Parent has said. He won the Grand Prix national de larchitecture in 1979 and was elected at the Acadmie des BeauxArts in 2005.
