Description

Le Corbusier World of Art by Kenneth Frampton is a revised and updated edition that reexamines the architect's artistic and philosophical worldview. This second edition features a new introduction and color illustrations, providing a fresh perspective on Le Corbusier's work. The book explores the recurrent themes in Le Corbusier's life and work, including his drive toward new types of dwelling, evolving concepts of urban form, and belief in a new technocratic order. By reevaluating these facets, Frampton presents a Le Corbusier whose work remains relevant for the 21st century. A comprehensive introduction to one of the most famous architects of the 20th century, this book is ideal for anyone interested in architecture and design.
