World War II Le Corbusier was less interested in architecture of the "Machine
Age." Instead of rectilinear geometries, his architecture is more "primitive"
and sculptural. On a hill, this monumental pilgimage church is a dramatic
form with the contrasts of a dark roof and the white-washed walls of rough
masonry. View from the southeast where the two curving walls meet; right: above the door where the two curving walls meet (facing east) |
