Le Corbusier

I just had a lecture about this amazing architect. I was about his design at his early years, where his design is being seen as something which is very remarkable and inspirational. I believe he is definitely a great person/ architect.

From what I have seen during the lecture, his design are all based on the box, square and rectangles. The white box architectures which were look like machine made but actually, they were hand-made - his inspiration in build up his design.

From far, the design just look so simple. Just a box as a place for living creatures inside. However, what makes it interesting and attracting people interest is the way he played with the plan and arrangement of what he is gonna put inside. Every space is carefully thought and place at the right angle. Just ask why, and he is definitely have the answer to every question.

As for myself, I love white-box architecture. It is simple and very elegant. The circulation is very easy to understand and on top of that, we can easily relate the architecture with the nature. The arrangement of ideas inside and outside gonna look very precise and in order. It does not only make you want to get inside and explore the building, it is also could inspire the people who come to have a look at the architecture. Make it simple because simplicity always give the best quality. and.........................On top of that, it simplifies my work in term of model making and the drawings. hehe
