This richly illustrated book offers a unique perspective on Le Corbusier, looking beyond his famous buildings. George H. Marcus examines the architect's understanding of modern domestic interiors and the role played by furniture, built-ins, and other furnishings within his architectural vision. Le Corbusier viewed living as a complex interplay of space, function, and design; consequently, his interiors were not merely furnished but conceived as holistic concepts. Marcus traces this evolution, showing how Le Corbusier's architectural philosophy gave rise to a distinctive vision of contemporary living and furniture design. Special attention is paid to his furniture designs and his collaborations with Charlotte Perriand and Pierre Jeanneret. Numerous illustrations reveal the close integration of architecture, interior fittings, and furniture design, making it clear why Le Corbusier's interiors are considered pivotal to the history of modern design. Featuring 210 illustrations and an insightful, expert narrative, the book appeals to enthusiasts of Le Corbusier, modern architecture, design, and the history of interiors. It also serves as an engaging reference for those particularly interested in the lesser-known yet essential interior design aspect of his body of work. George H. Marcus is an American art and design historian who served as an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Art History at the University of Pennsylvania. He spent over three decades as the head of publications and graphic design at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. His publications include *Landmarks of Twentieth Century Design*, *Functionalist Design*, *What Is Design Today?*, and *The Houses of Louis Kahn*.
