Indian Stage in Creative Activity of Le Corbusier. Chandigarh-City Project (1950–1960)

Le Corbusier's Chandigarh city project (1950–1960) exemplifies a groundbreaking synthesis of Western and Eastern modernist urban planning ideas, serving as a pivotal case study in the evolution of 20th-century architecture. The research identifies key socio-political and architectural design principles—integrated into master plans for pedestrian networks, transport systems, green spaces, and administrative centers—that reflect Le Corbusier's theoretical concepts while adapting to India's cultural context. This project stands out for its innovative approach, blending functionalism with aesthetic and political considerations, thereby influencing global urban development practices.
