Le Corbusier (1887-1965) was indisputedly one of the outstanding architects of the 20th Century - a genius in terms of creative imagination and sheer inventiveness.
Le Corbusier's seminal influence was especially pronounced in the field of urban planning (where he published a series of pioneering masterplans) and the search for new residential housing concepts. Many of his built works are considered icons of modern architecture.
