Description

Towards an Architecture (Vers une architecture) , now published in Spanish by Ediciones Infinito, was originally published in Paris in 1923, and expanded in subsequent editions.

Le Corbusier focuses here on the relentless critique of academic architecture and draws his strength from the conviction of an absolute and urgent need for constructive renewal, whose premises are more relevant today than ever: to build the house as a tool, the machine for living, to recover the human scale following the sincere model of the engineer's technique, that is, to serve, but without abandoning the premise proper to architecture: to move.

Le Corbusier (Charles-Édouard Jeanneret) was born in 1887 in Le Chaux-de-Fonds, Switzerland, and died on August 26, 1965, in Cap-Martin, France. He settled in Paris in 1917. His work as an architect and urban planner was complemented by his writing, painting, and design. His ideas, publications, projects, and built works were crucial to the consolidation of modern architecture and urban planning.
