'Le Corbusier Le Grand'

One of the most recognised names in architecture is fully explored in Phaidon's 'Le Corbusier Le Grand', a comprehensive visual biography of the life and work of Le Corbusier. First published a decade ago, the 864-page book is now released in paperback and features the same array of sketches, photographs and correspondences laid out in the original book, giving insight into the mind of one of the twentieth century's most influential architects. Authored by Jean-Louis Cohen, France's most authoritative historian of twentieth-century architecture and urbanism, and Tim Benton, a respected Le Corbusier scholar, the book is essential reading for anyone with an interest in architecture.
