A trip to Paris last week found us in a slightly more peripheral area than on other occassions - mainly on cost grounds - but it seems to me that less central is now the way to go in Paris offering a more relaxed, authentic, less gentrified experience including lot of interesting architecture
…for example the building in the image above, a early years school, giving off star-wars vibes to 13yr old son -it’s a landscape building in the same way that the National Theatre London is a landsape building and it also reminds me a lot of the scandalously demolished Pimlico School (have you seen what they replaced that building with??)…
I’m always worried that our own capital city has had, or is having, the life sucked out of it by it’s continuing un-affordability, so it was good to see that Paris still seems to be alive and kicking
