Architecture parlante : ウィキペディア英語版 | Architecture parlante Architecture parlante (“speaking architecture”) is architecture that explains its own function or identity. The phrase was originally associated with Claude Nicolas Ledoux, and was extended to other Paris-trained architects of the Revolutionary period, Étienne-Louis Boullée, and Jean-Jacques Lequeu.〔Emil Kaufmann. ''Three Revolutionary Architects: Boullée, Ledoux, and Lequeu.'' American Philosophical Society, 1952. Page 447.〕 Emil Kaufmann traced its first use to an anonymous critical essay with Ledoux's work as the subject, written for Magasin Pittoresque in 1852, and entitled ''"Etudes d'architecture en France"''.〔Emil Kaufmann. ''Architecture In The Age Of Reason Baroque and Post-Baroque in England, Italy, and France.'' Harvard University Press, 1955. Pages 130,and 251.〕 In Ledoux's unbuilt plans for the salt-producing town of Chaux, the hoop-makers' houses are shaped like barrels, the river inspector's house straddles the river, and an enormous brothel takes the shape of an erect phallus. ==Nonce orders== Within more practical applications, nonce orders, invented under the impetus of Neoclassicism, have served as examples of ''architecture parlante''. Several orders, usually simply based upon the Composite order and only varying in the design of the capitals, have been invented under the inspiration of specific occasions, but have not been used again. Thus they may be termed "nonce orders" on the analogy of nonce words. Robert Adam's brother James, in Rome in 1762, invented a "British Order" featuring the heraldic lion and unicorn. In 1789 George Dance invented an Ammonite Order, a variant of Ionic substituting volutes in the form of fossil ammonites for John Boydell's Shakespeare Gallery in Pall Mall, London. In the United States Benjamin Latrobe, the architect of the Capitol building in Washington DC, designed a series of botanically American orders. Most famous is the order substituting corncobs and their husks, which was executed by Giuseppe Franzoni and employed in the small domed Vestibule of the Supreme Court.
