It has been called the most important book ever published in the history of architecture; it is certainly the most important, most sought-after, and most emulated monograph on any architect. It is also the essential cornerstone of any architect's library. The uvre Complte, or Complete Works, of Le Corbusier collects all the works, built and unbuilt, of the modern master in eight beautiful volumes. Each project is presented in drawing, sketches, models, or photographs, and in the way Le Corbusier himself imagined each project. Produced in collaboration with the architect over a period of forty years, the set forms a unique record, preserving exhaustive accounts of Le Corbusier's buildings and projects, sketchbooks, manifestoes, images, and texts that have irrevocably changed the nature of architecture.
