Le Corbusier: Hospital in Venice: 1963-1970 (Hardcover)

The new Hospital Project in Venice was one of the most important works of Le Corbusier that has never been built. The death of the Swiss architect marked the end of one of the most exciting and dangerous experiments in the most spectacular city in the world. The new hospital's design in Venice was an acrobatic and audacious exercise that could have changed how Venice, the ever-still lagoon city, was perceived. This is the story of an unfinished masterpiece, the last shaped by Le Corbusier, and the intuition that allowed the most modern architect to shape the most modern project. Text but also the sharp description of the project by architectural design. Seventy-five original drawings describe and render the unfinished masterpiece of the French master. The project is interpreted, redesigned and described by consulting the massive archive and through the well known graphic techniques used by Ilios for all of its books. Original text and notes take the reader through a fantastic tour into one of the most crucial modern architecture projects. Examining one of the most important, unbuilt project of Le Corbusier Includes 44 photos and 75 drawings Written in English and Italian Print run of 300 copies
