Abstract:

While Le Corbusier's famous “journey to the east” has been the subject of numerous investigations as an important chapter in the great modernist's formative years, his days in Romania while en route to Constantinople are thinly covered. Le Corbusier and the Romanian Cula helps to fill that gap by focusing on one important detail: discovery of the identity and location of a much-discussed building he sketched while there and its importance for both traditional Romanian architecture and Le Corbusier's emerging vision of modernity. Judith Bing's discussion of her long search and unexpected discov

Abstract:

Located at the foothills of the Sivalik Mountains, Chandigarh was the dream city of independent India’s first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. In 1952, Nehru commissioned the Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier to design Chandigarh. Scholars often locate in Corbusier’s plans an urban modernity that required a break with the past. Moving away from such scholarship, this article will argue that Chandigarh marked a climactic moment in Le Corbusier’s career when he tried to weave together modern architecture with tradition, and through it, human beings with nature. A careful study of the cosmic ic

Abstract:

In 1946 Le Corbusier returned to the United States in conjunction with a French mission to study American architecture, public works, and planning. He traveled with Eugène Claudius-Petit, who would become minister of reconstruction in France. Their principal objective was to visit the Tennessee Valley Authority, considered a model for postwar reconstruction. In Le Corbusier and Postwar America: The TVA and Béton Brut, Mardges Bacon argues that the TVA’s regional planning and societal synthesis served as a model for Le Corbusier’s second-machine-age civilization. The TVA’s reinforced concrete d

Abstract:

The article proposes to delve deeper in the idea of space in Le Corbusier’s Toward an Architecture (1923), focalizing in its connections with the past and urban design. When in his book Le Corbusier presents his “trois rappels a messieurs les architectes” – volume, surface and plan (in its broad sense) – he outlines the keys to his idea of space. It proves imperative to use Le Corbusier’s original term “Rappel” as its word play transcends any possible translation. Space is therefore defined as a Rappel (call) to architects, but also as a Rappel (reminder, evocation) to multiple theorizations a

Abstract:

<p><em>In the 50´s, Le Corbusier publishes two books, Le Modulor (1950) and Le Poème de l´Angle Droit (1955). They are extremely important given that they represent the synthesis of his architectural thought at the height of his career. In both, references can be observed to the duality of male-female, which do not seem to have been previously part of the architect´s consistent theoretical body. One decade later, duality imbues the architectural critics, who interpret it as the opposition between two residential projects from early 1920´s, the Maisons Monol and the Maisons Citrohan

Abstract:

Le Corbusier, it has been said, defined architecture as "the poetry of construction" and as such, the term "ambiances" is reminiscent of those great words. In order to create that special quality, that poetry, that ambiance in architecture, a design concept that is the result of a thorough, repeatable design process must be employed. The purpose of this paper/presentation is to explain the design thinking/design tools we need to teach our students, i.e. the future Le Corbusiers of the world, how to create those special qualities that make ambiances/poetry in architecture possible.

Abstract:

Le Corbusier's later theory and production were largely informed by two important considerations: his idea of "ineffable space" (l'espace indicible), and his singular conception of "acoustics," which he apparently used as a troping or analogical tool in his design method. Le Corbusier was to describe the chapel at Ronchamp (1950-1954), for example, as a building that employed an "acoustic component in the domain of form," and suggested that the project began by taking into account "the acoustic of the landscape." The sources of this cryptic appeal to "acoustics" can be identified with some pre

Abstract:

Le Corbusier – The Art of Architecture is the vague and loaded title given to a marvellous but somewhat random collection of Le Corbusier material that has been touring Europe, until recently housed in Lutyens' crypt in Liverpool Cathedral before landing in London this spring at the Barbican, where it feels at home in Brutalist surroundings. The exhibition has provided the inspiration for a festival of Le Corbusier events and talks, competitions and workshops across the country. The question, however, is why?

Abstract:

Croatian scholarship is poorly acquainted with the life of the well-known Berlin architect, designer and professor, Selman Selmanagić. The enviable and lengthy career of this successful Bosniak and his exciting and dynamic life, intersecting with different cultures, certainly warrants attention, especially considering the contemporary research into the legacy of the Bauhaus tradition and the modes of its reception in Eastern Europe. Selman Selmanagić was the only Yugoslav who did his entire degree in architecture at Bauhaus. For twenty years he led the Department of Architecture at the Kunstho
