Frank Lloyd Wright and Le Corbusier are two very important names in the field of architecture. Both architects had different ideas regarding the relationship between man and the environment. Their architectural styles reflected how each could facilitate the person and the physical environment. Frank Lloyd Wright's Robie House is considered one of the most important buildings in the history of American architecture, and Le Corbusier's Villa Savoye helped define the progression that modern architecture would take in the 20th century. Both men are very charming and have greatly influenced my personal taste in modern architecture. Although Wright and Corbusier each had different views on how to design a house, they also had similar beliefs. This article is a comparison of the views of Frank Lloyd Wright and Le Corbusier exhibited through their two important houses, Frank Lloyd Wright's Robie House and Le Corbusier's Villa Savoye. Wright designed according to his desire to place residents close to the natural environment. According to him, a house should be a natural extension of its surroundings and not simply placed on a site. Wright designed his buildings so that their layout and features could blend into their surroundings rather than simply resembling a rectangular box on a lot. Wright stated, “A building should appear to grow easily from its site and be shaped to harmonize with its surroundings.” His main goal was to demonstrate how people can be in harmony with nature. He called it Organic Architecture. Wright felt that the relationship between the site and the building and the client's needs were very important. Unlike Wright, Le Corbusier showed industrialization rather than nature. ... in the center of the sheet ... the previous images show that both buildings highlight the horizontal, are free of ornamentation and define volume rather than mass. . The architectural styles of both Wright and Le Corbusier were to be achieved through standardization, which meant the separation of building elements into independent systems. These included the tendency to create spaces that flow together, rather than being compartmentalized for a particular function. Interior images indicate that both buildings have eroded the box for a space that flows without partitions between them. Additionally, shared attributes include a tendency toward simplification of form, the elimination of decorative and unnecessary elements, and a marriage of form and function.
