书籍介绍
这不是一本温和的建筑教科书,而是一份近乎论战式的宣言。柯布西耶把工程师奉为时代精神的化身:他以经济法则为律、以数学计算为尺,让形式与宇宙秩序暗合,从而在混凝土与玻璃之间唤起一种"纯粹的、精神性的感动"。全书由反复回荡的核心论点层层推进,"平面是生成者""轴线是秩序的维持者""规整线是对任性的制约"——这些命题贯穿始终,构成一套近乎代数学般的抽象体系。读者最称道的,正是它洞见未来的眼界:一句"住宅是居住的机器",至今仍在激辩。它适合那些不愿被风格史细节淹没、想直抵建筑"为何成立"之根的人;也提醒后来者:理论的生涩处,恰是它拒绝妥协的力量。

精彩摘录
  • "平面从内部发展到外部,外部是内部造成的。 建筑艺术的元素是光和影,墙和空间。 布局的有序性,这是把目的分级,把意图分级。 如果人们用不属于建筑语言的意图来衡量,人们就会得到平面的花活。由于观念的错误或者癖好浮华你就会违反平面的规则。 设计一个平面,就是明确和固定某些想法。这就是先要有些想法。这就是把这些想法整理得有秩序,使它们成为可以理解的,可以实现的和可以传播的。所以必须表现出一个明确的意图。一个平面应该浓缩,包含着大量的想法和一个起带动作用的意图。 “平面是整体的决定因素;这是一个严肃的抽象,看起来很枯燥的代数学。” 轴线是建筑中的秩序维持者。在建筑中,轴线要有一个目标。有序布局是把轴线分"
  • "The Engineer’s Æsthetic and Architecture—two things that march together and follow one from the other—the one at its full height, the other in an unhappy state of retrogression. The Engineer, inspired by the law of Economy and governed by mathematical calculation, puts us in accord with universal la"
  • "Our eyes are constructed to enable us to see forms in light. Primary forms are beautiful forms because they can be clearly appreciated. Architects to-day no longer achieve these simple forms. Working by calculation, engineers employ geometrical forms, satisfying our eyes by their geometry and our un"
  • "A mass is enveloped in its surface, a surface which is divided up according to the directing and generating lines of the mass; and this gives the mass its individuality. Architects to-day are afraid of the geometrical constituents of surfaces. The great problems of modern construction must have a ge"
  • "The Plan is the generator. Without a plan, you have lack of order, and wilfulness. The Plan holds in itself the essence of sensation. The great problems of to-morrow, dictated by collective necessities, put the question of “plan” in a new form. Modern life demands, and is waiting for, a new kind of "
  • "An inevitable element of Architecture. The necessity for order. The regulating line is a guarantee against wilfulness. It brings satisfaction to the understanding. The regulating line is a means to an end; it is not a recipe. Its choice and the modalities of expression given to it are an integral pa"
  • "A great epoch has begun. There exists a new spirit. There exists a mass of work conceived in the new spirit; it is to be met with particularly in industrial production. Architecture is stifled by custom. The “styles” are a lie. Style is a unity of principle animating all the work of an epoch, the re"
  • "The airplane is the product of close selection. The lesson of the airplane lies in the logic which governed the statement of the problem and its realization. The problem of the house has not yet been stated. Nevertheless there do exist standards for the dwelling-house. Machinery contains in itself t"
用户评论
Modernist architecture's flagship text; btw, when you become the boss, you would be able to write in such a discursive, fractured and repetitive style without being penalized by painful grad students and perhaps some common readers that tried to grasp your idea.
从来不知道原来我会以这样的原因去看这本书
拖延
"To those who, absorbed now in the problem of" machine for living ", stated that" architecture is service ", we replied:" The architecture is emotion. " And we were accused of "poet" with disdain
这次再读是好奇他的理论提炼过程 观察的方式 和对传统的萃取 即使他没有全部透露出来 再看看莱特真的浅薄了好多
现代建筑的圣经
该书主要阐述了勒·柯布西耶的建筑理念,强调建筑应该为人民服务,而不是被奢华和装饰所束缚。他提倡使用新材料和新技术,设计简单、实用的建筑,以满足人们的需求和舒适感,同时也要考虑环境和社会责任。此外,他还呼吁建筑师放弃过时的观念和风格,积极探索新的建筑方式和形式,以实现建筑的现代化和进步。这些理念对于现代建筑设计和城市规划产生了重要的影响
Man damn crazy; I’m so wrong for thinking that Japan is where minimalism starts; wonder whether his aesthetics influences Soviet Union 筒子楼
世界读书日,终于读完了五六年间翻开过不同译本无数次的这本书。柯布是天才确实是没错的,乍一看似乎武断的宣言背后是对本质的思考和对社会洪流的回应,所以说他是无可救药的乐观主义者也没错。对本质的洞见放在任何时代都同样精确,问题是,我们今天还需要这么多的乐观主义吗。
