Le Corbusier - La Villa Savoye

After completing a history and theory assignment, Le Corbusier caught my eye. Especially this building. Located in Poissy, near Paris, it was completed in 1929 and is one of the most recognised buildings in international architecture. The building is famous as it addresses Le Corbusier's 5 points of new architecture. I will provide more information on the building soon as I'm off to get some books on it later today. In the meantime, here are some videos on the building. An interesting digital presentation on the building aswell as someone doing a little tour through the interior.
