description: Le Corbusier Venice Hospital Edited by Hashim Sarkis This volume explores an unbuilt yet iconic project by Le Corbuiser and its visual representation. The Venice Hospital is the uncontested epitome of the “mat, ”or carpet, building type —a low sprawling structure developed in the late fifties and sixties that is making a strong comeback in contemporary architecture.
