Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to clarify his first realized city design，the new capital (Chandigarh), as a synthesis of images by Le Corbusier beyond the genres: paintings, architecture, urban designs. To fulfill the task, I collected his images and relating texts from his letters and his sketchbooks. Next we surveyed the birth and developments of Chandigarh. Furthermore we clarified the relations between them and his urban/ architectural designs of Chandigarh. As a result we could situates his urban/ architectural design of Chandigarh as follows: Chandigarh is not only the birth of a new capital, but also the creative play of images, which is crossing over the boundaries among different genres, brought together under the context (light) illuminating the place.
