Produktbeschreibung
The first book on Le Corbusiersâ¿s iconic apartment-studio.   Le Corbusierâ¿s apartment-studio is an iconic object of the twentieth century, combining the indisputable material values of the building with the intangible âsense of placeâ? of an architectâ¿s home. Le Corbusier, who lived there from 1934 until his death in 1965, treated it as a permanent construction siteâ¿a unique place of spatial, plastic, and constructional experimentation.   The phases of change at the apartment-studio are layered over each other, and thus the apartmentâ¿s âmany livesâ? create major philosophical problems for conservation. The âstratigraphyâ? itself, hard to unscramble yet full of meaning, is key to the apartmentâ¿s importance.   This first book on the apartment-studio, richly illustrated with largely unpublished visual material, presents research undertaken by the Laboratory of Techniques and Preservation of Modern Architecture (TSAM) for the Fondation Le Corbusier during preparatory investigations for the program of restoration. Lavish and thorough, Many Lives of Apartment-Studio Le Corbusier is an exploration of an iconic space.
