Promenade architecturale is a concept developed by Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier that refers to the implied "itinerary" of a built environment. Le Corbusier coined the term in reference to his houses: Villas La Roche and Savoye.[1][2] In the study of architecture there is a longstanding tradition of walking to achieve spatial perception, of for example, a street, building or any spatial premises designed or otherwise. Throughout history the perception of spaces through movement, mainly by means of walking through or along them, has always been a recurring, yet often overlooked concept.[3] Promenade architecturale refers literally to such a walk of perception, or in other words, an "Architectural walk".
