>Le Corbusier was heralded as the genius of modern architecture. Today, his buildings seem vaguely dystopian
100% agree with this. He designed first planned city of India, Chandigarh - state capital of Punjab at that time. Buildings he designed are lifeless to me. There is just no motivation going into those buildings, they sap your energy. Legislature house is easily one of the worst designed building of them all - imagine giving your politicians such an uninspiring structure and tasteless interior. On top, all of these buildings are poorly lit. I dreaded going into these buildings and bureaucrats housed inside also resented their offices.
