ABOUT
In this work, Corbusier meditates on his evolving conception of Paris, revisiting plans and ideas from as early as 1922 up through the mid-1950s. The text—entirely in French—guides the reader through his perspectives on contemporary urban life, the death of traditional street patterns, and the "Grand Paris" initiative. Interspersed are drawings, facsimiles of handwritten notes, archival photographs, and schematics of utopian projects like the Cité linéaire and the Unité d’Habitation, along with references to other cities and his Modulor system.
