Like all transcendent visionaries, Le Corbusier was adept at taking the iconic and symbolic and using them to fashion his own unique vocabulary. This volume points us towards the way in which his ideas created fertile grounds for architecture and urban planning in Chandigarh, and in India, that encapsulated the visions of the post-war and post-colonial era.

With insightful analyses of multiple buildings across Chandigarh, the author illuminates the compositional poetry evident in Le Corbusier's structures, and the ways in which the patina of time has changed the city. This vol- ume offers commentary on not just the intentions and plan that shaped Chandigarh, but also the dialogue of what they have become. A visceral journey through a remarka- ble modernist landscape using the photographic medium, Chandigarh Revealed pays homage to the works of a mas- ter with reflective observations of a living city.
