Indian prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru dreamt of a new town symbolic of freedom upon India’s achievement of independence. Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret are the architects in which helped bring Jawaharlal Nehru’s vision to life for the Indian city of Chandigarh. The globally renowned architects envisioned the city of Chandigarh as a horizontal grid consisting of broad avenues, neighbourhoods, sustainable spaces, medical facilities, schools, religious institutions, shopping centres, sports grounds and an artificial lake.
