Acerca de esta escucha
Towards a New Architecture is a seminal work by the Swiss-French architect Le Corbusier, first published in 1923.
Le Corbusier presents his vision for modern architecture, advocating for a break from traditional architectural forms and a move towards a more functional, rational, and utilitarian approach to design. The book is a manifesto for the principles that would later influence the International Style and modernist architecture.
Le Corbusier argues that architecture should be shaped by the needs of modern society, particularly the advancements in technology, industry, and engineering. He calls for a design language that reflects these changes, emphasizing clean lines, open spaces, and the use of new materials such as steel and concrete. He famously promotes the idea of the "machine for living," where buildings should serve as efficient, functional spaces rather than decorative structures.
Towards a New Architecture is a foundational text for modern architecture which has significantly influenced the development of the International Style, urban planning, and the way we think about the built environment today.
