  Parc de la Villette
His thoughts on disjunction led to the design of the Parc de la Villette in Paris, in which he won a competition for construction in 1983.
The similarities are evident in the drawing style and form, as well as the use of structure, evident in his sketch at left with its similarities to Chernikov's drawings from the early 20th Century.
The influence of the Constructivists is apparent in the formal qualities of the Parc and Tschumi's desire to upset the traditional aspects of architecture, though he is never explicit of this influence.

Le Parc de la Villette, la Cité des Sciences et de l’Industrie et la Cité de la Musique ouvrent leurs portes du 21 septembre au 3 octobre 2004 pour la seconde édition de la Villette Numérique.
