First published in 1936, this volume contains a classic treatise on French architecture, focusing on the period between 1494 and 1794. French architecture ranks high among France's many accomplishments, and this fascinating exploration of its history and development describes some of the most notable examples and designers in the country’s colourful history. Not to be missed by those with an interest in European architecture and history in general. Contents include: “The Italian Expedition, 1494”, “The First Italians in France”, “The Justes of Tours”, “II Rosso”, “Primaticcio”, “The Master-builders”, “The First Quarter of the Sixteenth Century”, “A Period of Experiment”, “Withdrawal of the Italians”, “1547-1600, Breakdown of the Medieval Tradition”, “The Coming of the Architects”, “Philibert De l’Orme”, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume today in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on architecture.

It is no surprise that Jacques Guiton, an architect who subscribes to Le Corbusier's idea of harmony as a controlling principle of design, should have produced a balanced and shapely book of memoirs. Between his early experiences at his grandfather's French country place to his retirement years at his own similar old farmhouse in America, Guiton chronicles events in Paris, Brittany, German prison camps and America. His prose is clean and clear and draws on all the senses.

Published in 1923, Toward an Architecture had an immediate impact on architects throughout Europe and remains a foundational text for students and professionals. Le Corbusier urges readers to cease thinking of architecture as a matter of historical styles and instead open their eyes to the modern world. Simultaneously a historian, critic, and prophet, he provocatively juxtaposes views of classical Greece and Renaissance Rome with images of airplanes, cars, and ocean liners. Le Corbusier's slogans--such as "the house is a machine for living in"--and philosophy changed how his contemporaries saw the relationship between architecture, technology, and history. This edition includes a new translation of the original text, a scholarly introduction, and background notes that illuminate the text and illustrations.
