Le Corbusier came to Japanese architects' knowledge in about 1923 through his project of Contemporary city for three million inhabitants and his book, "Toward an Architecture". Japanese architects soon noticed his works and theories and in 1929 their admiration of him reached its peak. One of the reasons why he was so admired by them is that he seemed to be an ideal architect who could advocate and practice radical rationalism beautifully. This shows how the Japanese architects who had searched a new architecture made much of practicing rationalism. Another reason can be counted ; his works and drawings were easy to accept for Japanese architects because they could find similar aspects to Japanese traditional architecture or paintings. The years of criticism soon followed right after the enthusiastic admiration. Although Le Corbusier had kept high reputation in general, some architects who had fully admired him began to criticize him pointing out the discordance between his works and theories. This also shows their devotion to rationalism. Between 1935 and 1945 Le Corbusier had been an idol of some Japanese architects. But their way of admiration was a little different from that in the late 1920s ; they admired Le Corbusier as a prominent form giver. This might reflect the giving way of the rigid rationalism of the 1920s which demanded exact conformity to the purpose of the building and accordance of shape and theory.
