Le Corbusier Paper Models - 10 Kirigami Models to Cut and Fold.

Le Corbusier is a Modernist icon whose buildings and theories have influenced structures the world over. With the help of Marc Hagan-Guirey’s new book, Le Corbusier Paper Models, you can create 10 of his most important works in paper using the art of kirigami (cutting and folding). Each project features step-by-step instructions, cutting tips and a template that you can remove from the book. All you need is a scalpel, a cutting mat and a ruler. When you are done, simply display your model and admire your handiwork!

The book contains some of the Swiss-French architect's best known buildings, including the Villa Savoye in Poissy, Maison de la Culture in Firminy and the High Court in Chandigarh.

These were all among the 17 Le Corbusier-designed buildings added to UNESCO's World Heritage list in 2016.

Alongside these buildings are the Maison Citrohan, Villa Stein-de Monzie, Maison de week-end, Maisons Jaoul, Unité d'habitation, Villa Sarabhai and Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts.

Le Corbusier Paper Models is a must for Corbusier fans and architectural model enthusiasts.
