Fernand
Pouillon
Fernand Pouillon (1912–1986) was a French architect known for his humanistic approach to large-scale housing projects, emphasizing quality materials, affordability, and livability. His notable works include the La Tourette housing complex in Marseille, the Climat de France housing in Algiers, and the Harbour of Bône. Rejecting mass-produced modernism, he used stone, brick, and proportionate design to create elegant yet functional urban environments. Despite legal controversies later in his career, Pouillon's work remains influential in social housing and sustainable urban development, proving that affordable architecture can also be beautiful and enduring.
