Charles-Edouard Jeanneret, who chose to be known as Le Corbusier, was a French, Swiss-born architect and writer, who is famous for his contributions to what now is called Modern Architecture.
He was a pioneer in theoretical studies of modern design and was dedicated to providing better living conditions for the residents of crowded cities. His career spanned five decades, with his iconic buildings constructed throughout central Europe, India, Russia, and one structure each in North and South America. He was also an urban planner, painter, sculptor, writer, and modern furniture designer.
