Vores huse vokser. Vi river ned og bygger nyt og større, samtidig med at vores byer vokser og bliver tættere. Og måden, vi bor på, har enorm betydning for, hvordan vi har det, og om vi kan enes. Den franske arkitekt, byplanlægger og filosof Le Corbusier talte om "bomaskinen", som han ville optimere til bedst mulig menneskelig trivsel. Har du et godt liv i din bomaskine? Medvirkende: Karl Christiansen arkitekt, professor emeritus v Arkitektskolen, Aarhus og Niels Bjørn urbanist, ph.d. i urban kompleksitet, forfatter. Tilrettelægger og vært: Carsten Ortmann.

Montserrat Villaverde Rey és historiadora de l'art, investigadora i professora universitària, especialista en patrimoni arquitectònic i paisatge. Combina la recerca amb la docència i la divulgació. Actualment, dirigeix el cicle "Cinc arquitectes i les seves circumstàncies" organitzat per ICOMOS Catalunya en el marc del projecte de recerca Bywomen, i amb col·laboració del Museu d'Història de Catalunya. Nascuda a la Vall Fosca, en un poble de només 20 habitants, Montserrat ens parla d'una infantesa feliç en un entorn matriarcal, del seu amor per la lectura i de com la curiositat l'ha portat a treballar en projectes internacionals a Cuba, l'Iran, el Magreb i el Mediterrani. La seva mirada analitza i estudia les múltiples vides dels edificis, els contextos que els envolten i els paisatges que ens conformen com a societat. També treballa en fer visibles trajectòries de dones que han liderat i que són desconegudes entre el gran públic. “No és que estiguin darrere o al costat d'un home, sinó que són elles les que van o han anat al davant.”, ens diu, reivindicant-les. La seva trajectòria docent i investigadora està lligada a l'ETSA La Salle i desenvolupa la seva activitat professional des del seu estudi àqabaBcn. Destaca que és important preservar el nostre patrimoni. “Les coses que tenim, no en propietat sinó les que gaudim i trepitgem, són també nosaltres mateixos. Si no les cuidem, què podem esperar dels altres?”. A la secció "Dones amb història", recuperem la figura de Manuelle Rocher, fotògrafa, cineasta i psicòloga, que va documentar amb una sensibilitat extraordinària l'arquitectura tradicional del Sahel i del sud d'Algèria. La seva obra va inspirar arquitectes com Le Corbusier, però el seu nom va quedar eclipsat. Montserrat reivindica la seva mirada i el seu llegat. podcast recorded with enacast.com

"C'est en France" met à l'honneur Le Corbusier, père de l'architecture moderne, à l'occasion du 60ᵉ anniversaire de sa mort. Visionnaire, il a posé les bases d'une nouvelle ère avec son essai révolutionnaire de 1923, "Vers une architecture", un ouvrage-référence pour les architectes d'aujourd'hui. Mais son héritage est aussi controversé, notamment en raison de révélations sur ses liens présumés avec des groupes fascistes. Retour sur son parcours avec Jennifer Ben Brahim et Nina Masson.

Er prägte das Bild des modernen Bauens wie kaum ein anderer: Le Corbusier entwarf nicht nur spektakuläre Häuser und Städte, sondern wollte mit klaren Formen, offenen Grundrissen und der Idee der "Wohnmaschine" die Gesellschaft verändern. Rebbert, Anke www.deutschlandfunk.de, Kalenderblatt

Švicarsko-francoski vsestranski umetnik Charles-Édouard Jeanneret (1887–1965) je od leta 1920 znan pod psevdonimom Le Corbusier. Rodil se je v francoskem delu Švice, a je leta 1930 z naturalizacijo pridobil francosko državljanstvo. Njegova ustvarjalna pot je trajala pet desetletij in je obsegala različna umetniška področja, kot so slikarstvo, kiparstvo, urbanizem, dizajn, Le Corbusier je bil tudi odličen risar in pisec, predvsem pa je bil arhitekt, saj je prav v arhitekturi pustil močan, prepoznaven in neizbrisljiv pečat – danes namreč velja za enega od začetnikov moderne arhitekture, njegovi projekti pa so bili realizirani v Evropi, na Japonskem, v Indiji ter v Severni in Južni Ameriki. Če želimo razumeti Le Corbusierjeve projekte, moramo poznati njegova radikalna in strogo strukturirana stališča. Pri tem pa je bistveno, da on ni želel zgolj graditi hiš ali mest – želel je preoblikovati način življenja ljudi. Le Corbusier je namreč dojemal sodobni svet kot kaotičen in neučinkovit, in je verjel, da lahko arhitektura ponovno vzpostavi socialno harmonijo. Ob 60. obletnici njegove smrti pretresamo njegovo delo – kaj je zanj značilno, kaj vse zaobsega in ali je prestalo test časa. Gosta sta arhitekta prof. dr. Aleš Vodopivec in izr. prof. Aljoša Dekleva. Foto: Wikipedija

For full episode and all deep dive episodes please subscribe Part one of a two-part deep dive into the grid and how it has quietly shaped our personal and social realities throughout history. From the invention of the brick to the birth of the spreadsheet, tracing the grid's influence across architecture, urban planning, culture, and technology.Starting with the brick-“equal parts mortar and module,” tied to the proportions of the human hand—and follow its logic through systems like the tablet, gridiron city plans (like Mohenjo-daro), maps, musical notation, ledgers, the screen and the moveable type, setting the stage for digital forms to come.Along the way, we talk Le Corbusier, the Swiss grid system of Josef Müller-Brockmann, the design of Instagram, and Lotus 1-2-3. This is a mellow research-based episode on how grids both liberate and constrain the ways we live, think, and create.Cited: Hannah B. Higgins The Grid Book

Nihal Arthanayake's nomination for the Trapped History Hall of Fame is a great one. The lost, forgotten and overlooked Sri Lankan architect Minnette de Silva. She was the first Asian woman elected to the Royal Institute of British Architects and a friend of Le Corbusier and Picasso. But she's been overshadowed by those men and by other Asian male architects.So tune in to hear her story and why she means so much to Nihal.

In this special episode, contemporary artist Amba Sayal-Bennett joins EMPIRE LINES live, to trace the migrations of rubber seeds between South America, London, and British colonies in South Asia in the 19th century, plus the role of soil in anticolonial resistance, through their digital drawing and sculpture, Kern (2024).Rubber is a commodity that was once so highly demanded that its value surpassed that of silver. In a mission facilitated by the British government, Henry Wickham stole and trafficked 70,000 rubber seeds from the Amazon rainforest in Brazil in 1876. Transported to Kew Gardens in London, they were then dispersed across Britain's colonies for cultivation. Its plural uses and potential for profit led to its proliferation across the globe - yet the soil in India, then known as the British Raj, refused to take the seeds, which the artist puts forward as a form of environmental resistance to the colonial project.Amba Sayal-Bennett's wall-based sculptures Kern (2024) and Phlo (2024) are part of their investigations into the migrations of forms, bodies, and knowledge across different sites. Presented in SEEDLINGS: Diasporic Imaginaries, currently touring Scotland with Travelling Gallery, we discuss this visual research into how colonial practices often decontextualise and appropriate forms. Amba delves botanical and anatomical drawings, and how these illustrations have been used to commodify and control plants, environments, and people. We consider through the construction and overlapping uses of terms like ‘native' and, ‘invasive', ‘indigenous', ‘naturalisation', and ‘dispersal', to challenge binaries between human and more-than-human beings, and consider ideas of home, identity, and belonging in the context of diasporas. Amba details her relationship with ornamentation, abstraction, and displacement, and how she translates her digital drawings into sculptural forms, rendered with biodegradable, but ‘unnatural', industrial plastics. Drawing on her site-specific works for Geometries of Difference (2022) at Somerset House, and Drawing Room Invites... in London, we also delve into Amba's critical engagement with sci-fi and modernist architecture, travelling to Le Corbusier's purpose-built city of Chandigarh in Punjab, the birthplace of her maternal grandparents, to explore tropical modernism.This episode was recorded live at Somerset House Studios in London, as part of the public programme for SEEDLINGS: Diasporic Imaginaries, curated by Jelena Sofronijevic with Travelling Gallery in Scotland. The group exhibition, featuring Emii Alrai, Iman Datoo, Radovan Kraguly, Zeljko Kujundzic, Remi Jabłecki, Leo Robinson, and Amba Sayal-Bennett, is touring across Scotland, culminating at Edinburgh Art Festival (EAF 2025) in August 2025.For more information, follow Travelling Gallery and EMPIRE LINES on social media, and visit: linktr.ee/SEEDLINGSTG2025Drawing Room Invites…: Anna Paterson, Alicia Reyes McNamara, Amba Sayal-Bennett is at the Drawing Room in London until 27 July 2025.For more about Between Hands and Metal (2024), a group exhibition featuring Amba Sayal-Bennett, Alia Hamaoui, and Raheel Khan at Palmer Gallery in London, read my article in gowithYamo:. gowithyamo.com/blog/palmer-gallery-maryleboneFor more science fiction and sci-fi films, hear Tanoa Sasraku on her series of Terratypes (2022-Now) at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum (RAMM) in Exeter: pod.link/1533637675/episode/3083096d6354376421721cfbb49d0ba7For more from Invasion Ecology (2024), co-curated by Jelena Sofronijevic for Radical Ecology, and Vashti Cassinelli at Southcombe Barn, an arts space and gardens on Dartmoor, visit: ⁠⁠⁠⁠radicalecology.earth/events/invasion-ecology-exhibition⁠⁠⁠⁠ and instagram.com/p/C7lYcigovSNPRODUCER: Jelena Sofronijevic.Follow EMPIRE LINES on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠instagram.com/empirelinespodcast⁠⁠⁠Support EMPIRE LINES on Patreon: ⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/empirelines

Die Irin Eileen Gray war Anfang des 20. Jahrhunderts eine der bemerkenswertesten Frauen überhaupt: erst gefeierte Möbeldesignerin, dann Architektin. Ihr Debut-Haus E-1027 erregte viel Aufmerksamkeit, auch bei anderen zeitgenössischen Architekten wie Le Corbusier.

Le Corbusier: biografia e opere di uno degli architetti più famosi del Novecento con approfondimento su villa Savoye e sulle sue teorie riguardo l'architettura.

Le Corbusier's Unité d'habitation in Marseille remains one of the most polarising architectural landmarks of the 20th century. A bold experiment in modernist housing, it envisioned a radical new way of urban living, one that was both efficient and communal. While celebrated by many architects for its innovation, it has also faced criticism for disregarding the social and cultural complexities of real cities.In this episode of Light Cities Architecture, writer and editor Justine Costigan and practising architect Antony DiMase delve into the legacy, mythology, and reality of this Brutalist icon. Was it a revolutionary step forward, or an idealistic vision that fell short? And, given the choice, would either of them choose to live there? Tune in to find out.Links:Fondation Le Corbusier https://www.fondationlecorbusier.fr/en/Unité d'Habitation tours https://www.marseille-tourisme.com/en/discover-marseille/culture-heritage/discover-the-sites-and-monuments-in-marseille/cite-radieuse-of-le-corbusier/Instagram: @lightscitiesarchitectureLinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/justine-costigan/https://www.linkedin.com/in/antony-dimase/Credits:Editor: Suzanne McLeodThis episode was recorded at Image online, Abbotsford, Australia.

Le brutalisme est un mouvement architectural.Le terme "brutalisme" vient du français béton brut, utilisé par l'architecte suisse Le Corbusier pour décrire l'aspect brut du béton après décoffrage. C'est dans les années 1950 que le mouvement prend son essor avec les architectes Alison et Peter Smithson, qui revendiquent une architecture honnête, où les matériaux et la structure ne sont pas dissimulés sous des finitions décoratives.Dans les années 1960 et 1970, le brutalisme devient un style dominant, notamment pour les bâtiments publics (universités, mairies, bibliothèques) et les logements sociaux. Son influence s'étend à travers le monde, particulièrement en Grande-Bretagne, en France, en Union soviétique et aux États-Unis.Principales caractéristiques du brutalisme1. Béton brut exposé : Pas d'enduit, pas de peinture, les bâtiments affichent directement la texture du béton. 2. Formes massives et angulaires : L'architecture brutaliste privilégie des volumes imposants, des lignes droites et des structures souvent monolithiques. 3. Matériaux apparents : Outre le béton, on trouve de la brique, de l'acier et du verre, laissés à l'état brut. 4. Fonctionnalité et minimalisme : Les bâtiments sont conçus pour répondre à un usage précis, sans ornementation superflue. 5. Expression de la structure : Les éléments architecturaux (escaliers, piliers, poutres) sont volontairement exposés et mis en avant. Exemples emblématiquesLa Cité radieuse (1947-1952, Marseille) de Le Corbusier Le Barbican Estate (1965-1976, Londres) La Bourse du Travail (1972, Bobigny) Le siège du Parti communiste français (1971, Paris) par Oscar Niemeyer Déclin et renouveauDans les années 1980, le brutalisme est critiqué pour son aspect froid et oppressant. Beaucoup d'édifices brutalistes sont détruits ou délaissés. Pourtant, depuis les années 2010, il connaît un regain d'intérêt, notamment dans l'art contemporain et le design urbain, où son esthétique radicale inspire de nouveaux projets.Aujourd'hui, le brutalisme est reconnu comme un courant architectural majeur du XXe siècle, apprécié pour son audace et sa force expressive.

Join Keri Smith and Mystery Chris for a LIVE #PoppedCulture on Wednesday, August 17th, 2022 at 8pm CDT as we try to walk through a history of the worst of the worst in architecture. We'll touch on Modernism, New International Style, Le Corbusier, the Bauhaus school, Futurist and Fascist architecture, Post-Modernist architecture and even Batman and Gotham City.

Il Brutalismo è tornato sotto i riflettori grazie al film The Brutalist, candidato a ben 10 premi Oscar. Ma cosa rende così iconico questo stile architettonico? Nato nel secondo dopoguerra in Inghilterra, il Brutalismo è caratterizzato dall'uso del calcestruzzo a vista e da forme geometriche imponenti, spesso percepite come "pesanti" o grezze. In questo video esploriamo la storia di questa corrente, le sue origini con Le Corbusier e il concetto di Béton Brut, fino a chiederci: ha davvero senso, dal punto di vista strutturale, realizzare edifici di questo tipo?

Faye Toogood is perhaps best known for her Roly-Poly chair, among the more famous pieces of furniture to come out of the 2010s and take over the zeitgeist, but the London-based designer's artistry and craft runs much deeper and spans much wider. She began finding, collecting, cataloging, producing, and editing her “assemblages” long before she ever had a name for them, and her design career has been marked by exactly that, beginning with the debut of Assemblage 1 (2010) and through to her latest, Assemblage 8: Palette (2024). On the whole, Toogood's creations serve as material investigations and discipline-defying attempts to better understand herself. Without formal training in design, Toogood—who was the Designer of the Year at the Maison&Objet design fair in Paris this past January and the Stockholm Furniture Fair's Guest of Honor in February—uses what she describes as the feeling of being “a fraud in the room” to her advantage. Through her work, she is an enigma; with projects across furniture, interiors, fashion, and homewares, she's unwilling to be defined by a single output and has instead built a multilayered practice and belief system that allows her to be “all heart and hands.” On this week's Time Sensitive—our debut of Season 11—Toogood talks about the acts of creation and connection, and how each underscores the enduring play that's ever-present in her work.Special thanks to our Season 11 presenting sponsor, L'École, School of Jewelry Arts.Show notes:Faye ToogoodToogood[3:49] Assemblage 1[7:43] Assemblage 7[13:28] Seamus Heaney[14:50] Isamu Noguchi[14:50] Kan Yasuda[17:23] Roly-Poly chair[18:06] Rachel Whiteread[20:07] Barbara Hepworth Museum and Sculpture Garden[22:45] Matisse Chapel[25:40] “Ways of Seeing”[29:57] “Womanifesto!”[36:55] Assemblage 8[52:17] “The World of Interiors”

Chandigarh is the shared capital city of the Indian states of Punjab and Haryana, built under the leadership of modernist and brutalist architect Le Corbusier, as an emblem of the postcolonial Indian nation state as visualized by the first Indian prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru. It was a repudiation of the imperialist architectural style, and for Le Corbusier a personal revenge project after his dissatisfactions with how he was treated during his planning for the United Nations building in New York. Vikramaditya Parakash says that it is a misconception that Chandigarh was built as a blueprint for a future utopia, when in fact it was built as a city where multiple ideas of futurity are put into play. Dr. Vikramaditya Prakash (B.Arch, MA, Phd) works on modernism, postcoloniality and global history. Recent books include One Continuous Line: Art, Architecture and Urbanism of Aditya Prakash and Le Corbusier's Chandigarh Revisited: Preservation as Future Modernism.

Během druhé světové války v ní sídlili nacisté a pak i osvobozenecké americké jednotky. Později funkcionalistická vila Savoye ve francouzském městě Poissy sloužila jako skladiště a nakonec měla být srovnána se zemí. Autorem slavné stavby přitom není nikdo jiný než světoznámý Le Corbusier. Vlna protestů ale nakonec vilu zachránila a dnes je jednou z nejlepších ukázek moderní architektury vůbec.

In this episode, we discuss Cormac's excitement about the Detroit Lions making the playoffs and explore the significant transformation happening in Detroit. We examine how the city's struggles have led to a new era of development and restoration. The main focus of our conversation centers on Le Corbusier and the often-overlooked contributions of his cousin Pierre Jeanneret, who helped make Corb's innovative designs technically feasible.

Si les grands ensembles et les quartiers populaires étaient autrefois synonymes de progrès et de modernité, à l'image des cités radieuses conçues par Le Corbusier, ils ont vu depuis quelques décennies leur image s'effondrer dans notre imaginaire collectif.Pour tenter de changer la donne, les pouvoirs publics, par la voix d'Emmanuel Macron, ont annoncé une consultation architecturale d'envergure baptisée "Quartiers de demain". Dans dix quartiers dits prioritaires, les cabinets les plus prestigieux s'affronteront tout au long de l'année dans un concours d'architectes afin de proposer 10 nouvelles cités radieuses.Mais avant de suivre ce concours au fil des mois à venir, Thomas Rozec, accompagné de Marie-Christine Jaillet, géographe et sociologue, et de Renaud Epstein, sociologue, a tenté de comprendre le désamour qu'ont vécu les quartiers populaires.Merci à L'Europe des Projets Architecturaux et Urbains (EPAU) avec qui nous avons fabriqué cet épisode.Programme B est un podcast de Binge Audio présenté par Thomas Rozec. Réalisation : Clément Morel. Production et édition : Charlotte Baix. Générique : François Clos et Thibault Lefranc. Identité sonore Binge Audio : Jean-Benoît Dunckel (musique) et Bonnie El Bokeili (voix). Identité graphique : Sébastien Brothier et Thomas Steffen (Upian). Direction des programmes : Joël Ronez.

In this episode, I sit down with Nicholas Fox Weber, art historian and Executive Director of the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation. He is also the author of fifteen books, among them iBauhaus, Le Corbusier, Balthus: A Biography, and Patron Saints. Weber is a gradu­ate of Colum­bia Col­lege (B.A., major in Art History), Yale Uni­ver­sity (M.A., Art History; Fellowship in American Art), and the University of Groningen (PhD).  He lives in Connecticut, Paris, and Ireland. Despite all his professional accomplishments, Nick's heart is focused on his humanitarian work in Senegal. Nick is the founder of Le Korsa, a not-for-profit organization in Senegal. I admire Nick so much. We all see things in life that we wish we could change or people that we'd like to help – yet we are all so busy with our own lives that it is the rare among us that does something – Nick is one of those people. After a trip to Senegal with a Parisian doctor about twenty years ago, Nick saw communities that needed access to health care, education, and basic amenities. Ever since, Nick has worked tirelessly to support clinics, schools, and other life-saving initiatives in Senegal through Le Korsa.     My son John and I visited Senegal in February of 2023, and we witnessed Nick's incredible work firsthand. Every bit of resources directed toward Le Korsa make such an impact. Donations to Le Korsa go directly to projects in Senegal, from digging wells to buying academic supplies to helping patients receive medical care. In this conversation, Nick and I discuss his work in Senegal, how and why he got started, and about his spectacular and purposeful life as an art historian, author, and humanitarian. This episode is just the kind of inspiration that is so fitting this holiday season! To learn more about Le Korsa, visit https://www.aflk.org/ If you enjoy the show, please rate and review.

Originally born in Ireland, she spent her career in France, becoming a self-taught architect and an innovator in furniture design. She's known for blending functionality with bold, avant-garde aesthetics. Her early career began with mastering lacquer work, a craft she honed despite its physical challenges, and she became a leading figure in Art Deco. Gray's most iconic work is the E-1027 house, a modernist masterpiece designed with meticulous attention to detail and human-centered design principles. Despite her contributions, her achievements were often overshadowed by her male contemporaries, including the controversial vandalism of her work by Le Corbusier. Gray's designs, like the Bibendum Chair, the E-1027 table and her modular lacquer screens, continue to inspire today. Rediscovered in her later years, she is now celebrated as a trailblazer who forged her own path, proving that vision and resilience can leave a lasting mark on the world of design. About EmilyEmily Farnham is the founder of Emily Farnham Architecture, a Los Angeles-based practice known for its innovative and holistic approach to residential design. With an impressive career that spans architecture, interiors, and custom design, Emily's projects balance aesthetics, function, and personalization. She holds a Master of Architecture degree from Harvard's Graduate School of Design and a Bachelor of Science in Architecture from the University of Virginia's School of Architecture. Before establishing her practice in 2014, Emily honed her skills at several leading design firms in Los Angeles, New York, Boston, and San Francisco. This diverse background equipped her with the expertise to tackle projects of varying scales and complexities, from residential spaces to large-scale civic and educational buildings. Emily is a licensed architect in California and a LEED-accredited professional, known for her meticulous attention to detail and deep understanding of the construction process.Follow Emily:Instagram: @emilyfarnhamarchitectureWebsite: emilyfarnham.com  ____View all the visually rich 1-min reels of each woman on IG below:Instagram: Amber AsayInstagram: Women Designers Pod

In 1927, after famously being dismissed by Le Corbusier with the remark, "We don't embroider cushions here," she eventually joined his studio and co-designed iconic pieces like the LC4 Chaise Longue and LC2 armchair.Though these collaborations are what she is most known for, Perriand's career extended far beyond them. She designed the modular Nuage Bookshelf and minimalist Tokyo Bench, blending functionality with clean, modernist aesthetics. Perriand was also integral to larger architectural projects like the Unité d'Habitation, where she introduced multifunctional interiors, and the Les Arcs Ski Resort, where her modular furniture designs embraced the natural environment. About AdiAdi Goodrich is a Los Angeles-based multidisciplinary designer known for her vibrant and imaginative approach to Environmental design, Interiors, and furniture. Growing up in Chicago, she was heavily influenced by her father's work in architectural and furniture restoration, which fostered her love for craftsmanship from a young age. Adi studied at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and La Sorbonne in Paris, where she explored various disciplines including painting and art history.Goodrich first gained attention working on window displays for Barneys New York and Anthropologie, which led to a flourishing career in set design for films, commercials, and photoshoots. Adi is Co-founder of Sing-Sing Studio, a creative practice she shares with her partner, filmmaker, Sean Pecknold where they have worked with major brands such as Apple, Google, Nike, Target, and more, bringing a unique blend of storytelling and design to each project. Adi also launched her own furniture line, in 2022 called "Sing-Thing." Her work is characterized by a bold use of color, materials, and a focus on creating spaces that are narratively driven.

Seen from above, Sofia, Bulgaria, looks less like a city and more like a forest. Large "interblock park" green spaces between big apartment structures are a defining characteristic of the city. They're not so much "parks" in the formal sense, with fences and gates, just open green areas growing up in interstitial spaces left behind.But as green as it still looks today, Sofia used to be even greener.  Since the fall of Bulgarian communism in the late 1980s, Sofia has lost more than half of its green space. To understand why, one has to look back to the founding of the city in the Soviet era.Between the Blocks
