Abstract
DNA and origin of ideas which have generated the major urban design project of “Seine-Arche” near Paris in the 2000–2010’s years. The radical break that occurred in the 1980’s in the urban ideas have seen the pictorial references from cubism and abstract art change reference to classical garden and Haussmann design. This is not only a formal change but also a policy reversal, the public space has become the major element of urban composition.
