About this title

Synopsis

A tour of one hundred examples of the world's finest architecture - including palaces, bridges, skyscrapers, & stadiums. You employ stone, wood, & concrete, & with these materials you build houses & palaces. That is construction. Ingenuity is at work. But suddenly, you touch my heart, you do me good. I am happy, & I say :This is beautiful.: That is architecture. Le Corbusier, 1923
