Analysis Of Manifesto By Le Corbusier

The intentions of the writers/architects
When analysing the written pieces the inclusion of “imagination” is not expressed as a pre-determined decision which suggests that it is an inevitable thing in writing.
Le Corbusiers Manifesto as a whole is a successful breakdown of architecture with a strong influence of scientific terminology to support his views but also has the ability to guide you into the construction and design elements of architecture. Unlike some of the other reads such as ——(other writings by Le Corbusier)— a basic foundational understanding of architecture isn't needed. Le Corbusier has an effective way in allowing readers to relate to his words by referring to mental images and extremely simple concepts. This is shown in
This suggests there is great truth in what he said then. However it could be argued the the vague and broad approach is the reason his simple manifesto is able to be applied at present. Corbusier is reliant on his beliefs as an architect to create a manifesto of rules based on his experiences in which he would imagine to be proposed as a guideline for architectural creation.

This form of writing expresses how factual content is still linked to imaginative thoughts and opinions. Although this manifesto was created in —- it could be applied to architectural creations today such as—— this prove the manifesto to be effective? Why is imagination vital for the development of architecture in this modern
Using his imagination to objectify the human. The time of day creates an intensity and high importance of the space being lived in. Similarly to Corbusier Georges provides factual content of behaviour and action however the layout is imaginative and changes the simple form of text into a deeper study of how the purpose of space can be changed for the imagination of the viewer. Perec is very aware that his description is site specific and obviously dependant on the people within the space. With influences like , different placement of furniture, different relationships of the people inhibiting the space and even different rooms the story would be different. Being “in the moment” creates a unique perspective that the reader can only imagine and rely on what is being said. The same story could not happen again, the routine of movement within a house is still unique from the day, hour and even minute before.

Figures doors and passages is a binary opposition to this allowing external influences and architectural foundations to be the imagination creating the design of
