A revised and updated edition of a best-selling introduction to one of the most important architects of the 20th century.
Le Corbusier is probably the most famous architect of the 20th century. The richness and variety of his work and his passionately expressed philosophy of architecture have had a gigantic impact on the urban fabric and the way we live.
Throughout his long and prolific life, there are certain recurring themes: his perennial drive towards new types of housing, from the early white villas to the UnitƩ d'Habitation in Marseilles; his evolving concepts of urban form, including the Voisin Plan of 1925 with its cross-shaped towers imposed on the city of Paris and his work in Chandigarh, India; and his belief in a new technocratic order.
