The Complete Works of Le Corbusier, Set Free
One of the most influential, and controversial, figures of modern architecture and design is more accessible than ever.
Arch Daily shares news of a free resource that will appeal to design and planning historians (professional or casual) with an interest in Le Corbusier.
According to Arch Daily, "the writings of Le Corbusier are perhaps the most influential texts ever produced by an architect," and they are available for free online, in addition to "a comprehensive record of his buildings, projects and sketches."
(For the record, Le Corbusier came in at #9 on the Planetizen list of "Most Influential Urbanists," announced earlier today.)
