Sumari:For decades, the so-called modern architecture and urbanism tried to modify the environment by applying new techniques. Le Corbusier was one of its remarkable supporters, and his poetical associations related to the full confidence in the technical era can be found in most part of his work performed during the first decades of the 20th century.
