Blau, Eve and Nancy J. Troy. Architecture and Cubism. The MIT Press, 1997.
This is a book contain eleven articles that is about Cubism and architecture, even though not all of the chapter is about Le Corbusier but it gives a clear definition as example of Cubism architecture. In chapter 10, the essay explore the connection between Le Corbusier’s purist art and his architecture projects of the same period with notes parallels between his work in both media on the one hand and cubism on the other.
Boyer, Christine M. Le Corbusier: Homme de Lettres. Princeton Architectual Press. 2011.
“Homme de Lettres” (Man of Letters) celebrated for Le Corbusier’s architecture numbers fewer than sixty buildings, Le Corbusier also wrote more than fifty books, hundreds of articles, and thousands of letters. Le Corbusier, Homme de Lettres is the first in-depth study of Le Corbusier as a writer as well as an architect. Featuring more than two hundred archival images from Le Corbusier’s life and work, this groundbreaking book examines his many writing projects from 1907 to 1947, as well as his letters written to two mentors: Charles L’Eplattenier and William Ritter. Author M. Christine Boyer focuses on the development of his writing style as it morphed from romantic prose to aphorisms and telegraphic bulletins. For each of his books, Le Corbusier was meticulous about the design of the page layout, the form of the type, the impact of the ideas, and even the promotional material. As a man of letters, Le Corbusier expected to contribute to the cultural atmosphere of the twentieth century. Le Corbusier, Homme deLettres shows for the first time how his voluminous output—books, diaries, letters, sketchbooks, travel notebooks, lecture transcriptions, exposition catalogs, journal articles—reflects not just a compulsion to write, but a passion for advancing his ideas about the relationship between architecture, urbanism, and society in a new machine age. Chapter 6 The Method for the Arts of Today, the author explain deeply on the history of purism and cubism it has a lot of quote from Le Corbusier and Ozenfant that let us know more about the time and the throey.
Penalta, Catalan Rocio. Le Corbusier An Architect On The Way to The East: Impressions and
drawing. Studia Universitati Petro Maior Phiologia. 2011.
In May 1911, Le Corbusier travelled to eastern Europe, this article is to point out to what extent this experience of instruction, initiation and discovery through eastern Europe will have a clear influence on the future works of Le Corbusier, both in his architectural projects and theoretical
reflections. The author describes Purism as pretends to achieve as maximum stylist purification as possible by means of the use of colours, lines and pure shapes. Thus, in that primitive art
Le Corbusier detects “the instinctive appreciation of the organic line” on the part of “the small town potter […] whose fingers unconsciously respond to the orders of the secular tradition” (p. 24)
Clarke, Joseph. Iannis Xenakis and the Philips Pavilion. The Journal of Architecture. 2012. 17,
no.2: 213-229
The Philips Pavilion, design by Le Corbusier’s office for the 1958 World’s Fair, brought the
architectural plan, the optical effects of movement and the ideology of progress into a
more intense discursive relationship than virtually any project since his Purist houses of
the 1920s. While the Pavilion has long been recognized as a seminal work, scholars have
tended to overlook the aesthetic intentions of its chief designer, the composer Iannis
Xenakis, often simplistically characterizing the building as an architectural ‘translation’ of
music. This paper closely examines several of Xenakis’s wireframe axonometric sketches
along with new diagrammatic renderings to analyze the formal disconnect between the
Pavilion’s plan and the experience of walking around and through it.
Cohen, Jean- Louis. The Future of Architecture Since 1889. Phaidon Press, 2012
This is a book that linking architecture to developments in art, technology, urbanism and critical theory. Encompassing both well-known masters and previously neglected but significant architects, this book also reflects the writer deep knowledge of architecture across the globe, and in places such Eastern Europe and colonial Africa and South America that have rarely been included in histories of this period. In Chapter 10 Return to order in Paris, it states the history of Purism and a few example of Le Corbusier’s modern house.

Architecture. 1996: 3-14.
This is an article is about the art work Le Corbusier accomplish with in the 1927-1953, Le Poeme de l’Angle Driot is one of the work is describe in the article, it is a portfolio of 155 lithographs made between 1947 and 1953. The article describes how Le Corbusier develop Purism art, for example reduce black and white version of color or marriage of lines. Le Corbusier had named his art as two categories, unconscious and conscious. Unconscious period is when he is exploring the topic for his art and conscious is when he is exploring the topic and the final work.
Heer, Kan de. The Architectonic Colour: Polychromy in the Purist Architecture of Le Corbusier.
olo Publisher, 2009.
This is a book that originally publishes in Dutch, it is a book about the reconstruction of a working method on architectonic polychromy and a considerations that led to this method. This method was started by Le Corbusier on his purism art and architecture. For example the pavilion de L’Esprit Nouveau using color to decorate and a visual purpose, the pavilion are supported by free load-bearing concrete skeleton which leads to this purism example of “Plan Libre” in architecture by Le Corbusier. De Stijl is the example of the first polychrome experiment in purism in art, using primary colors to compose and later it is used to paint on element of architecture.
Le Corbusier. Essential Le Corbusier L’Esprit Nouveau Article. Architectural Press. 1998.
This is a book with three main articles by Le Corbusier, Toward a New Architecture, The City of Tomorrow and The Decorative Art of Today. From these articles is the information of the insight of the art or the theory that Le Corbusier shown in his work. For this paper assignment, The Decorative Art of Today noted the 1925 expo, the Esprit Nouveau Pavilion. The Book was inspired by and written in protest to the Decorative Arts Exhibition mounted in Paris in 1925. In it Le Corbusier warned about certain dangerous trends he saw emerging in interior, industrial, and architectural design. He did not like what he saw. Against the official tradition of interior decoration, he called for an architecture that satisfied the imperatives of function through form and for an interior and an industrial design that responded to the industrial needs of the present, machine-age methods of production.Although the exhibition that spawned the term “Art Deco” was organized by the French Ministry of Industry and Commerce for the purpose of creating a market for French arts and crafts and to fend off the influx of foreign products, Le Corbusier saw an opportunity to show that the industry was capable of supplying not only the apartment but the entire city with mass-produced furniture and objects. His own roots lay in the crafts tradition; yet in this book he rejects the masters Ruskin, Hoffmann, Guimard, and Grasset and provides a theoretical basis for his opposition to decoration. The translator, James Dunnett, is professor of architecture at the University of Canterbury.

[order_calculator]Assignment 2: Ethics and Corporate Responsibility in the Workplace and the World
Due Week 7 and worth 250 points
PharmaCARE (We CARE about YOUR health®) is one of the world’s most successful pharmaceutical companies, enjoying a reputation as a caring, ethical and well-run company that produced high-quality products that saved millions of lives and enhanced the quality of life for millions of others. The company offers free and discounted drugs to low-income consumers, has a foundation that sponsors healthcare educational programs and scholarships, and its CEO serves on the PhRMA board. PharmaCARE recently launched a new initiative, We CARE about YOUR world®, pledging its commitment to the environment through recycling, packaging changes and other green initiatives, despite the fact that the company’s lobbying efforts and PAC have successfully defeated environmental laws and regulations, including extension of the Superfund tax, which was created by Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (CERCLA).
Based in New Jersey, PharmaCARE maintains a large manufacturing facility in the African nation of Colberia, where the company has found several “healers” eager to freely share information about indigenous cures and an abundance of Colberians willing to work for $1.00 a day, harvesting plants by walking five (5) miles into and out of the jungle carrying baskets that, when full, weigh up to fifty (50) pounds. Due to the low standard of living in Colberia, much of the population lives in primitive huts with no electricity or running water. PharmaCARE’s executives, however, live in a luxury compound, complete with a swimming pool, tennis courts, and a golf course. PharmaCARE’s extensive activities in Colberia have destroyed habitat and endangered native species.
Two (2) years ago, after PharmaCARE’s research indicated that one of its top-selling diabetes drugs might slow the progression of Alzheimer’s disease, its pharmacists began reformulating that drug to maximize the effect. In order to avoid FDA scrutiny, PharmaCARE established a wholly-owned subsidiary, CompCARE, to operate as a compounding pharmacy to sell the new formulation to individuals on a prescription basis. CompCARE set up shop in a suburban office park near its parent’s headquarters, and to conserve money and time, did a quick, low-cost renovation and designated Allen Jones to run the operation’s “clean room.”
CompCARE benefited from PharmaCARE’s reputation, databases, networks, and sales and marketing expertise, and within six (6) months had the medical community buzzing about AD23. Demand soared, particularly among Medicare, Medicaid, and VA patients. Seeing the opportunity to realize even more profit, CompCARE began advertising its services and the availability of AD23 to consumers and marketing the drug directly to hospitals, clinics, and physician offices, even though compounding pharmacies are not supposed to sell drugs in bulk for general use. To get around this technicality, CompCARE encouraged doctors to fax in lists of bogus patient names.
As production increased and hours were extended, one of Allen’s techs pointed out what appeared to be mold around the air vents. Allen immediately contacted the facilities’ supervisor, who came over to inspect the lab. As time went on, workers began coughing, sneezing, and getting headaches at work, and one employee, Donna, who had a perfect attendance record, got so sick she could no longer come to work due to chronic bronchial problems. Eventually, she filed for worker’s compensation. Allen’s best supervisor, Tom, threatened to complain to OSHA about the air quality in the lab, and one of the techs, Ayesha, filed an EEOC complaint alleging she had not been promoted to supervisor because she was a Muslim; in fact, although Ayesha was a very good worker, Allen did not believe she had the management or people skills necessary to be a good supervisor. Allen discussed these issues with his boss, the Director of Operations, who told Allen that if he wants to keep his job and receive his promised bonus, he needs to fire Donna, Tom, and Ayesha, and keep his own mouth shut about the mold and the bogus prescriptions.
As CompCARE and its parent company enjoyed record profits and PharmaCARE’s stock price approached $300 per share, reports started filtering in that people who received AD23 seemed to be suffering heart attacks at an alarming rate. The company ignored this data and continued filling large orders and paid huge bonuses to all the executives and managers, including Allen, who, after being named “Employee of the Year,” was beginning to miss production schedules due not only to his staff’s increasing use of sick leave, but also his own health issues.
PharmaCARE sold CompCARE to WellCo, a large drugstore chain, just weeks before AD23 was publicly linked to over 200 cardiac deaths. Both PharmaCARE and WellCo saw their stock price plummet.

Refer to the document uploads. I’ve uploaded Chapter 5 from the textbook, course project guidance and also the course project. This is the second section to the course project. 4 additional references are needed. Here are the guidelines.
Part 3: Diagnosing the Change (Due Week 4)Select a Diagnostic Model (see Chapter Five) that you utilize to review aspects of change activities and actions that have been taken by the company chosen. Here we are looking at the “parts” of the company as well as the strategies, as surmised by your research in Part 1. It is acknowledged that this information will not be complete, as you are looking at the company as an outsider; but a thoroughly researched paper will give enough data to allow some (well-defended) assumptions on your part.
Here’s what to do:
1. Choose one Diagnostic Model (i.e. 6-box, 7S, congruence, or etc.) to apply to the chosen company. Choose the model which you feel best identifies and measures the relevant aspects of the organization’s performance and therefore the diagnostic choices made will affect your findings.
2. Apply the data obtained in your research through an analysis of the appropriate chosen model. This will allow you to create a diagnosis of where the company is today (as per the criteria of the model).
3. Create a SWOT Analysis for the company’s change plans/programs, utilizing information obtained in the diagnosis. (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats.)
4. Compare the two company analyses to each other and offer your perspective (value judgment) of the effectiveness of the changes made to date in each case.
5. Identify potential areas of resistance that may occur and at least one strategy to respond to each. (This will most likely come from your Weaknesses/Threats section of your SWOT. If not, take another look at your SWOT.)
6. Write your paper including each of the above sections, and analyses
