Louis I Kahn's architecture & Jacques Tati's Playtime

From the film "Playtime", what I had seen on the screen were "universal elements" which include the way people dressed, modern buildings and environment of the city which could be judged as some city in USA. Although the elements in the film are universal in the way they look, each one has its own way to "specify" itself. For example, people specify themselves through their spoken languages, environment in the city has been specify though written language of iconic  element (Eiffel Tower in this case). What is unique in this film is that it was emphasized in terms of noise. Each object has been expressed its own "noise" while being used.

Another thing I could see was the way the things had been uniformed. Not only the people have been uniformed with western style clothes, but the architecture have been uniformed as well. For the exterior we can see box-shaped buildings with glass facade and we see  grids of uniformed office blocks. I think the idea of "uniform" can be linked to some of Louis I Kahn's works. In this case, I'd like to relate it to Salk Institute and Yale Art Galleries. These two buildings can be seen as formations of repeated uniform units. These buildings have been marked special by their openings as well as the lighting.
