The architect who combines in his being the power of vision, of imagination, of intellect, of sympathy with human need and the power to interpret them in a language vernacular and time...is he who shall create poems in stone...

The history of architectural material...has been the endless struggle for light, against the obstacle imposed by the laws of weight: the entire history of architecture revolves exclusively around the openings in the walls.

My house says to me, "Do not leave me, for here dwells your past."
And the road says to me, "Come and follow me, for I am your future."
And I say to both my house and the road, "I have no past, nor have I a future. If I stay here, there is a going in my staying; and if I go there is a staying in my going. Only love and death will change all things."

ReplyDeleteLe Corbusier - svidja mise citat s pocetka teksta; a on je stvarno bio nevjerojatan covjek! I kad sam posjetila Villa Savoye bilo mi je neverojatno kada je on imao takve ideje! Karmen
Draga <3, da, LE CORBUSIER- ne samo da je bio talentiran nego je zaista bio pravi genijalac- otac suvremene arh.!!!Nazalost nisam posjetila Villu Vavoye (blago ti se :-)),ali sam posjetila Unité d'Habitation...i kad pomislim da je zivio i stvarao prije 100 godina i da je imao tako napredne ideje-pravi VIZIONAR!!!Ako ti ikad slucajno dojde pod ruke njegova knjiga iz 1925: Urbanisme (Urbanism)...obavezno je procitaj, jer ne samo da je bio genijalni arhitekt sa vizionarskim idejama nego je bio i odlican pisac!Mislim da bi ti se mogla svidit...<3
