CONT

Héritier des réflexions de F. Perret, Le Corbusier (1887-1965) déclarait dès 1927 à propos des «toits-terrasses» : «au lieu de perdre son terrain en y construisant sa maison, on le double». Auteur d'une «théorie du toit jardin», il fut le plus radical d'un groupe d'architectes utilisant la toiture-terrasse de façon plus ou moins manifeste dans les années 1925-1935.

OBS

toit jardin : équivalent confirmé par le Doyen de la Faculté d'architecture de l'Université de Montréal - et par l'Ordre des architectes du Québec.
