The Advent of Modernism for lovers of art, design and architecture
The Architecture of Le Corbusier is an essential topic in understanding modern design and architecture. We examine the sources of his design and architecture both from the technical side and the design side. We look in detail at the evolution of his most important works of architecture and design. The course analyzes the impact that Le Corbusier had on the early and fundamental developments of modernism in architecture and design. He is one of the most influential designers of our modern world. I teach lecture courses and studios as I wish they would have been taught to me. Much of the graphic material in my lectures is taken or generated first hand directly by me on site. I teach to learn. I teach subjects as I wish they were taught to me. The Mission Statement. Education is a tool for the improvement of successive generations. I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand. Confucius
This course is designed under the premise that humans should be taught in a way that is modeled after the educational patterns of evolution.
The design, development and application of educational systems based on the educational principles of evolution generates a philosophy and methodology of education in synchrony with the evolutionary education system that is firmly and deeply rooted in each of us.
Education for evolution is an educational system designed to help propel humans forward in the natural course of evolution. The purpose of education for evolution is to enhance and strengthen the natural evolutionary process of humans through the mechanism of education. The means to achieve this objective is the design of a curricula based on the same educational techniques and strategies used by natural evolution, enhanced and guided by the application of conscious educational decisions.
A the end of this course students will be able to recognize and use the principle of modernism in design.
The course enhances human development.
The course promotes self-learning.

I'm glad that I attended these lessons. Even though, I've only watched 3 videos I feel like learning a lot.
interesting. I would have loved to seee more technical explanation
This course is extremely interesting and covers the work of this distinguished architect and Professor von Bortel gives us multiple examples with deep explanations on the subject. I recommend this course.
Its been awhile since I had my architectural appreciation classes in college and this is a great refresher on a well known 20th century architect. This is a good sampling of the architects work and while Le Corbusier is a modern architect his work is now of another time. I have taken several of Professor Borstel's classes and they are all well produced and informative.
The teacher’s accent is a little hard to understand.
Good match.
A course that you can’t stop watching, it is generously informative and enjoyable
Inspiration and knowledge about creating forms that accord with the object's character. Thank you.
