Le Corbusier (1887-1965) is one of the giants of 21st century architecture and design. Le Corbusier was not only the creator of some of the most important and impressive buildings of the last century, he was also an accomplished painter, sculptor, furniture designer, urbanist, and author. His work and social theories continue to be a dominant force in the world of architecture and design.Drawing on an array of archival material, including sketches, photographs, and correspondences, Le Corbusier Le Grand depicts in roughly chronological order not only the vast and varied output of Le Corbusier, but also the major events, people and forces that shaped the life of an artist who continues to fascinate those in and outside the architectural world.

This large-format book weighs in at a whopping 20 plus pounds and measures 19.6 by 14.3 by 3.9 inches with over 600 pages - a stunning collection of the work of Le Corbusier.
