In the 1950's Le Corbusier designed a number of buildings in India. Villa Shodhan - the last building that he constructed Ð was built in 1957 in Ahmedabad, Gujarath. As a privately owned home it has been protected from fame and only few have been granted access to this fantastic house, the last villa to be designed by Le Corbusier. The book is written by the Indian architect Manisha Shodan Basu, who is related to the inhabitants of the villa. The book is a thorough examination of the large and complicated building in which Corbusier makes use of all his experience with house and building, at the same time adjusting them to the local conditions like climate, building tradition and family relations.
