Towards a New Architecture
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Vers une architecture)
Vers une architecture, usually translated as Towards a New Architecture, is collection of essays by Le Corbusier. The essays, which originally appeared in the French journal L'Esprit Nouveau, set out Le Corbusier's theory for an architecture for the Modern Age. Briefly, he espoused the cause of an architecture that would be true to its time, a product of its own age rather than a throwback to classical or Renaissance architecture dictums.
Originally published in 1923, Vers une architecture remains one of the seminal texts of modern architecture.
