Radieuse inspire - Daroca Mikael
Le sourire majuscule
Propose de l ’ aide
Jardin de conscience
Prétexte des éloges.
La joyeuse compagnie
Nourrit une existence
Semer cailloux blancs
Chemin des chants.
Se pencher
Au baiser éclatant
Cymbale des joies
Liens expérimentent
Marches d ’ escalier.
Laps d ’ abstraction
Relations de naïveté
L ’ euphorie se berce
Des mots charmants.
Cœur d ’ abandon.
Nudité des voix
Autorisé du chant
Falaise des élans
Peaufine l ’ ampleur.
Paysage fantasme
Formule l ’ ampleur
Langage se tourne
Distribue le plateau.
Niché.
L ’ art de la joie
Dépasse l ’ horizon
Émotion d ’ inspiration
Repère beau Paradis.
Empreint des magies
Constate une ironie
Femme des secrets
Ancrait vaste village

"Unité d’Habitation / La Cité Radieuse", 280 Boulevard Michelet, 13008, Marseille, France [1947-52] _ Architect: Le Corbusier _ Photos by: Spyros Kaprinis [25.05.2024].
"The building takes the form of a housing bar 135 metres long, 24 metres wide, 56 metres high and mounted on stilts. Three hundred and thirty apartments, divided into twenty-three different types, can accommodate a population of between 1,500 and 1,700 occupants having at their disposal on the seventh and eighth floors a shopping street and a hotel-restaurant, together with a kindergarten and sports facilities on the roof terrace. The constructive principle adopted, the so-called “bottle rack”, consists in building apartments inside an independent frame of posts and reinforced concrete beams. The apartments are made up of standard elements assembled on the site. All the apartments are dual-aspect, except those on the south side. A sun-break loggia provides an open-air facility at the same time as limiting exposure to sunlight. Protected by double glazing, the apartment interiors are subject to the two basic rules of naval and monastic architecture: rationalism and simplicity. The living room, open on two levels, is the nucleus of the family “home”; upstairs the parents’ room occupies the mezzanine. The kitchen is equipped like a laboratory: electric cooker, refrigerator, rubbish chute and storage racks. The entire apartment is fitted with racks replacing traditional storage. The ventilation of the kitchen, bathroom and toilets is mechanically operated, while the entire apartment is supplied with clean air by an air conditioning system. These facilities were not found in the low-cost collective housing units of the time, and the standard surface areas of the Unité d’Habitation are greater than these by between 40% and 50%. The seventeen-storeys below the terrace are connected by eight interior streets which, given the overlap of the two-storey apartments, each serve three floors. Each street is accessed by a battery of four elevators complemented by a service elevator and three emergency staircases. The entire building and its equipment are designed in terms of the Modulor, the universal measuring unit conceived by Le Corbusier."

Académie Princesse Radieuse
Académie Princesse Radieuse de la Haute Couture, or Académie Princesse Radieuse/APR for short, is my fanon Twst school. It based on Disney Princesses and Marie. It is an international all-girls French boarding college that mainly focuses on Fashion, but also focuses on perfume and makeup. Majority of students are between ages 18-22.
It is considered one of the Top 3 Best Fashion schools in all of Wonderland. Due to things like the Commission Board, Fashion Contests, and trips around Wonderland, students are given many opportunities to gain experience and make connections. By graduating this Academy alone, people are given so many opportunities in the Fashion and Beauty Industry.
As the Academy is based around 10 Princesses (including Marie), the Academy also helps train their students into becoming elegant young ladies. They are taught values like beauty, grace, kindness, and basically all of the values of a Princess.
