..."The architectural quality of buildings and structures, their design and the way they position themselves in their surroundings are officially recognized as being beneficial to the general public since they are key to a harmonious landscape and urban setting and contribute to the mental stability as well as to the well-being of both body and soul. A new development should fit well into its environment, constitute an isolated structure in the landscape, or create a harmonious or monumental, urban or industrial setting, thus contributing to the natural beauty of the surrounding scenery".
Letter to A. de Clermont-Tonnerre, Cabinet of the Prime Minister Algiers, November 30th 1973, concerning a French bill on Architecture |
