La Bibliothèque de l'Amateur 10 : Le Corbusier
Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, known as Le Corbusier (1887–1965), is undoubtedly one of the most important architects of the 20th century. From the Villa Savoye in Poissy to the Cité Radieuse in Marseille, from his cottage on the Mediterranean coast to the city of Chandigarh in India—including apartment buildings, a chapel, and even a convent—he spent his life creating buildings that have become icons of the Modernist movement, attracting visitors from around the world. This architect, who was at times provocative, also devoted his time to drawing, painting, and writing. As a theorist, he published some forty books that remain standard works in the field. “Architecture is the learned, correct, and magnificent interplay of volumes assembled in light,” wrote the man who left a lasting mark on the discipline.
