Jean Nouvel was born on August 12, 1945 in Fumel, France. His architecture is powerfully expressive, which he achieves by focusing on a few key elements. Nouvel seeks pure sensation and bases his projects on a single, powerful concept.
To meet the expectations of the City of Paris, the Ministry of Culture and Communication and the Ile-de-France Regional Council, Jean Nouvel has put together an outstanding design team.
Round table and debate with Pierre Boulez, composer and conductor, Jean Nouvel, winner of the design competition, and Laurent Bayle, president of the Philharmonie de Paris association. Conference recorded in November 2008 in the Louvre auditorium.
