Abstract
Painting and drawing frame the creative process of Paul Nelson, and in that context, this paper analyzes the graphic design of the project of the “Maison Suspendue” (1936-1938). The pictorial fact is a reflection mechanism capable of explaining underlying concepts to the architecture as fluency and spatial continuity. In the 20’s his paintings reflected George Braque’s influence in the cubist search of the incorporation of time in the two-dimensional plane and the representation of reality away from the apparent. Nevertheless, in the decade of the 30, the cosmologies of Miró, Arp, Calder and Leger, with the relations of floating spots of colour in the emptiness, will be present in his investigations as he is moving from painting to an innovative architecture that tries to respond to modern man inhabitance within the frame of the School of Paris in its light tectonic trend.
