★這本暢銷著作的修訂更新版，深入介紹了 20 世紀最頂尖的建築大師之一。
柯比意（Le Corbusier）或許是 20 世紀最著名的建築師。他作品的豐富多樣性，以及他對建築哲學充滿激情的論述，對都市結構及我們的生活方式產生了巨大的影響。在他漫長且多產的一生中，交織著某些反覆出現的主題：他對新型居住形式長久以來的追求，從早期的白色別墅到馬賽的「居住單元」（Unité d’Habitation）；他對城市形態不斷演進的概念，包括 1925 年計劃在巴黎市區置入十字型大樓的「瓦贊計畫」（Plan Voisin），以及他在印度香地葛（Chandigarh）的設計；還有他對新技術官僚秩序的信念。
著名的評論家兼建築史學家肯尼斯·弗蘭姆普敦（Kenneth Frampton），根據近年來的思潮重新檢視了柯比意藝術與哲學世界觀的各個面向，並為我們呈現了一個屬於 21 世紀的柯比意。此修訂版新增了一篇導讀，且部分插圖已更換為彩色圖片。
★A revised and updated edition of a bestselling introduction on one of the leading architects of the 20th century
Le Corbusier is probably the most famous architect of the 20th century. The richness and variety of his work and his passionately expressed philosophy of architecture have had a gigantic impact on the urban fabric and the way we live. Weaving through his long and prolific life are certain recurrent themes – his perennial drive towards new types of dwelling, from the early white villas to the Unité d’Habitation at Marseilles; his evolving concepts of urban form, including the Plan Voisin of 1925 with its cruciform towers imposed on the city of Paris and his work at Chandigarh in India; and his belief in a new technocratic order.
The distinguished critic and architecture historian Kenneth Frampton re-examines all the facets of his artistic and philosophical world-view in light of recent thinking, and presents us with a Le Corbusier for the 21st century. This revised edition features a new introduction; some illustrations have now been replaced with colour.
