Dome

View of the roof terrace from the ramp, showing massive gray steel umbrella roof structure; Also known as the Centre Le Corbusier, the Heidi Weber Pavilion was completed after Corbusier's death by Jullian de la Fuente and is now a (rarely open) museum and gallery. The structure of the building is in two parts: first, two cubes, with sides of enameled steel panels and glass; above them, but structurally separate, a massive gray steel umbrella or parasol. The modular construction of the cubes has proven sufficiently flexible to accommodate various uses, from the house that the building was originally designed as, to the gallery it now is and was always envisaged as becoming. Within the space available beneath the umbrella roof, the inner building can take on different configurations. Source: Galinsky [website]; http://www.galinsky.com/ (accessed 7/18/2010)
