Sinossi
Le Corbusier, nato Charles-Édouard Jeanneret (1887-1965), è conosciuto in tutto il mondo come l'architetto più influente del Ventesimo secolo. Dalle ville private, fino ai progetti di edilizia popolare, le sue idee radicali, i disegni e gli scritti rivoluzionarono completamente la struttura abitativa, ma soprattutto ridefinirono il concetto del moderno "abitare". Le opere de Le Corbusier subirono una chiara evoluzione nel corso degli anni, partendo dalle prime case vernacolari in Svizzera, per arrivare alle ville puriste di un bianco abbagliante e alle sintesi dinamiche che univano arte e architettura, come la cappella di Ronchamp e gli edifici pubblici di Chandigarh, in India. In ciascuna di esse, tuttavia, possiamo ammirare la sua incredibile abilità nel fondere le tendenze funzionaliste con un solido espressionismo, nonché la sua ampia e profonda conoscenza nel campo della progettazione urbanistica. Le Corbusier fu membro fondatore del Congrès international d'architecture moderne (CIAM), che promuoveva "l'architettura come forma d'arte." Tramite i suoi progetti più significativi, questo volume presenta un architetto, un pensatore, nonché un pioniere della modernità che, perfino nelle opere incompiute, riuscì a offrire alle generazioni future infiniti spunti di riflessione e modelli da cui trarre ispirazione.

Voleo sam sva ova "Tašenova" izdanja o arhitekturi i umetnosti :)
Πολύ ωραία συλλογή έργων ενός πολύ σημαντικού αρχιτέκτονα, του Le Corbusier. Στο συγκεκριμένο βιβλίο, παρουσιάζονται σύντομα αλλά περιεκτικά χαρακτηριστικά δείγματα της αρχιτεκτονικής του Ελβετού, συνοδευόμενα από σχέδια και φωτογραφίες που διευκολύνουν τη σφαιρικότερη κατανόησή τους. Η παρουσίαση γ Leggi tutto
I really like this Taschen Architecture collection, but this book uses more technical language, which might be a bit confusing if you're not familiar with the terms. I'd appreciate it more if some pictures were in color instead of black and white, as the black and white filter causes some images to
Alexa Aston's Dukes hit me in all the feels every single time. Every one of her Dukes is my favorite, until her next book. This is book three in the Dukes Done Wrong series.

Donovan and Wynter Another amazing book in this series. Donovan and Wynter's story is full of heartbreak and longing. Heartbreak over the loss of Sam, and longing for tragedies in their past to never happen. Wynter is fierce and refuses to conform to what the ton expects. While Donovan has to learn
