Le Corbusier Quotes About Eyes

Quotes about: Eyes

• Architecture is the masterly, correct, and magnificent play of masses brought together in light. Our eyes are made to see forms in light: light and shade reveal these forms.

  Le Corbusier

  Eye, Light, Play

  Le Corbusier (2013). “Towards a New Architecture”, p.29, Courier Corporation

• Our own epoch is determining, day by day, its own style. Our eyes, unhappily, are unable yet to discern it.

  Le Corbusier

  Eye, Style, Unhappiness

  Le Corbusier (2013). “Towards a New Architecture”, p.3, Courier Corporation

• Architecture is the masterly, correct and magnificent play of masses brought together in light. Our eyes are made to see forms in light; light and shade reveal these forms; cubes, cones, spheres, cylinders or pyramids are the great primary forms which light reveals to advantage; the image of these is distinct and tangible within us without ambiguity. It is for this reason that these are beautiful forms, the most beautiful forms. Everybody is agreed to that, the child, the savage and the metaphysician.

  Le Corbusier

  Beautiful, Children, Eye
