Émile Aillaud (1902–1988) was a French architect who sought to bring poetry and colour to social housing. The catalogue holds 1 of his works: the Aillaud Towers (Tours Aillaud) in Nanterre, a Postmodernist ensemble of sinuous cylindrical towers clad in mosaic tiles depicting clouds, trees, and sky — an attempt to transform mass housing into an inhabited landscape of colour and curved form.
