RONCHAMP I LE CORBUSIER I A WALK THROUGH IN 4K

Thank you for joining!
This episode of Fourth Wall is about Ronchamp (Notre Dame du Haut) from Le Corbusier.

The main point I miss in online architecture is quality. Mainly the spaces are never told in the pictures, and the information is very technically focused and narrow.

My take is: 4K quality and simplification! I will be uploading material every week. I hope to get the message across and make it as easy as possible!

Let me know in the comment section: Are you missing anything in the video? What are your favorite concepts of the building?

I will keep posting more videos like this...every Thursday! Don´t forget to like and subscribe to support the channel!

So, enjoy! I hope you like watching it, as much as I enjoyed doing it!

I have had the privilege of visiting the chapel once (mid-80s) and was simply floored. I'm not the least bit religious but you cannot help but have a somber, reflective and dare I say spiritual mindset as you walk around this extraordinarily beautiful building. There are zero "church-ish" cliches; everything is entirely reworked from ground zero. The natural lighting is so, so, so, so subtly and carefully done. It is much, much smaller than you might expect but it utterly commands the landscape. It absolutely heaves and broods like it has been there for a billion years. I have never experienced another place like it and I remember the visit like it was yesterday.

A truly iconic structure. Idiosyncratic, baffling, and seductive. It breaks some of my "rules" but it's a building that "grips" one. That is greatness.

The juxtapositional layers of cinematography, description, titling at the opening of each sequence and the gentle and descriptive philosophy embedded in such organic verbiage, as conveyed through gentle dialogue precisely elicits the magic and raw spiritual beauty that Le Corbusier shared with us through his magical and pure design. This is not an easy accomplishment on your behalf, FourthWall. Very much admired and appreciated.

I love this building.
When I saw it for first time it brought multiple ideas into my mind. It was so different from the modern architecture, despite I love das Bauhaus Dessau, which I love very much, this building brought something different from the traditional architectural monuments, castles, Roman, Greek, and many others. Its texture, the thickness of the walls, the colored glass, the depths, the tranquility a true place nor just for a chapel, but for me even for a house, I must say that I incorporate this idea in to many other ideas, I have and I had drawings based in to this idea, still I am not an architect by professional school, I am a natural architect.
Still is one of my favorite buildings, but I had so many favorites, infinite taste for different ones, but this one is a very important one. A singular one in many....

Magnificent piece of architecture...was there in 2016 and found it awe inspiring. I was amazed at the scale of the building...small and large all at once.

I love the exposed concrete. The curved roof is so subtle and delitate at outside. The spout at the end is really powerful like an elephant trunk. There is ice hanging at the spout end in winter and water drops from it slowly to the concrete fountain. The triangle and the tube of the fountain contrast to each other like a symbolic day & night. Inside, when I first saw the convex roof, I really think it is so organic that just like a converted lobster shell. The seat is made of wood panel and concrete stand is more like an art rather than furniture. The stairs are always masterly manupilated by Corb. He can always manupilate concrete into a lovely scale and delicate work without effort.

Strongly recommend to visit again in the evevning, mutiple golden rays will come from the window wall !

Je n'ai JAMAIS rien vu d'aussi beau sur Ronchamp, merci !
