The idea that buildings could be used to reform human behaviour and improve society was fundamental to modernist architecture and planning of people like Walter Gropius, Le Corbusier and Jose Luis Sert in first half of the 20th century. This title demonstrates the myriad ways that architect-planners seek to shape human behaviour through buildings.
