| Opplysninger | Le Corbusier ws the twentieth century's most significant architect. His innovative houses, including Villas La Roche-Jeanneret, Villa Savoye, Maison Curutchet, and Maison de l'Homme, are icons of modernism and monuments to his quest to forge new ways of living. Yet, until now, only faded drawings of uneven size and quality have been available for study. Le Corbusier Redrawn: The Houses presents the first consistently rendered collection of plans, sections, and elevations of the master architect's residential projects, together with 120 remarkable sectional perspectives based on original drawings from Le Corbusier Foundation's digital archives. Architect Steven Park's new compositions and interior spaces, while accompanying text traces the progression of Le Corbusier's theories and techniques, from his machine-inspired white villas through later dwellings that reinterpreted ancient and vernacular forms and methods. Le Corbusier Redrawn: The Houses is an essential tool for comprehending the ideas and works of this pivotal figure in the history of modern architecture
