The architect himself, who resided in the space from 1934 until his passing in 1965, regarded it as an ongoing construction site, a unique platform for spatial, plastic, and constructional experimentation. The phases of transformation at the apartment-studio are intricately layered, creating profound philosophical challenges for conservation. The very \"stratigraphy\" of the space, while intricate and difficult to unravel, holds immense significance in understanding its importance. This groundbreaking book, adorned with numerous unpublished visual materials, emerges as a result of research conducted by the Laboratory of Techniques and Preservation of Modern Architecture (TSAM) for the Fondation Le Corbusier during the initial stages of restoration efforts. It is a lavish and comprehensive exploration of an iconic space, offering a deep dive into the many lives and enduring legacy of Apartment-Studio Le Corbusier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1062g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 216 x 281 x 21 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9782889154845\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Franz Graf,Giula Marino","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44397527138554,"sku":"9782889154845","price":64.26,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1690557379779_book.jpg?v=1690563483","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/the-many-lives-of-apartmentstudio-le-corbusier-19312014-9782889154845","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
