Le Corbusier
The Architect of Light, Machine, and Controversy
I build the future in concrete and light.
I see a world unchained from clutter, from the crooked, from the sentimental. My buildings are machines for living, precise as a surgeon’s blade. I have drawn the lines of a new order: pilotis lifting man above the earth, ribbon windows cutting through shadow, roof gardens feeding the sky. They call my cities cold, my forms inhuman — but I see harmony, I see clarity, I see salvation.
What I'm Into: ribbon windows, the Modulor, Unité d'Habitation, automobiles in motion, light through concrete
