-The '''Cartesian sky-scraper''', designed by [[Le Corbusier]] in 1938, is a type of tower [[building]] known for its modern and rational design. This type of modern administration building has its source in the first sketches for the [[Pavillon de L'Esprit Nouveau]] in 1919, which proposes a [[cruciform]] form for [[skyscraper]]s, radiating light and [[stability]]. In principle the cruciform plan (with two axes) does not adapt itself to the path of the sun, which has only one axis. Studying further, it was seen that with this form [[symmetrical]] about two [[axes]], the cruciform skyscraper does not receive [[sunlight]] on its north facades.

+''''Not From Concentrate'''' is the second independent album release from [[Evan & Jaron]]. It was released on A Major Label Records (an independent label started up by Evan and Jaron) in 1996.
-As a result, a new form was introduced: the "[[chicken claw floorplan|chicken claw]]". This is the insertion of many bays along both axes in plan, allowing for more light and air. With this everything became more alive, more true, more harmonious, more supple, more diverse, more architectural.
-Cases for its application were found in the plans for [[Anvers-Rive-Gauche]], [[Barcelona]], [[Buenos Aires]], [[Manhattan]], etc. Such a form and its dimensions become a true [[urbanism|urbanistic]] work, the fruit of modern techniques. The innovation right from the start was to oppose the purely formal and romantic conceptions of American skyscrapers (with their pyramidal forms and needle-like terminations).
