Informazioni sul libro
IN 1927, THE GREAT SWISS-FRENCH ARCHITECT LE CORBUSIER completed a house in the Paris suburb of Garches. Twenty years later, British scholar Colin Rowe’s essay “The Mathematics of the Ideal Villa” brought Garches to the foreground. And Garches—as architects refer to the house—has stayed there ever since.

GARCHES 1234 picks up where Rowe's essay left off and throws bold light on Le Corbusier’s assertion that at Garches, more than any of his other projects, “proportion ruled absolutely there, as absolute mistress.”

ARCHITECT JEF7REY HILDNER published an early version of this essay in the refereed Journal of Architectural Education. Here the essay appears in its final and fully illustrated form.

THE SIXTH EDITION presents an expanded gallery of Hildner's work—an expression of the mythopoetics behind the mathematics.

"GREAT ART THREADS US THROUGH A LABYRINTH—ALONG A PATH AS OLD AS TIME: DEPARTURE, TRANSFORMATION, RETURN." —JEF7REY HILDNER, PICASSO LESSONS Jef7rey Hildner is an award-winning architect, painter, and writer. Through all his creative endeavors, including 12 books, he passionately explores the architecture of art and life. He sometimes paints as Henry Trucks and writes as Michelangelo A. Roland Slate, aka M.A.R.S. Like the first architects―astronomer-priests: spiritual stargazers—Jef7rey seeks to grok the Architecture of the Form & Story of Reality. And give artistic expression to his vision. He draws inspiration from the tragic yet heroic ancient Greek myth about the protagonist Joseph Campbell called "the hero of the way of thought"—the architect of the Labyrinth and Wings. Daedalus.
