The Curutchet house is part of UNESCO world heritage program. This house is the only proyect from Le Corbusier y Latín América and is a perfect example of his architecture manifest. This house is eclectic, between modern architecture and brutalism, it is located in the middle of 2 pre existing houses and it articulate their facades. The house has lots of sensitive details that make it unique, and its really incredible the level of coherence achieved even when Le Corbusier designed it from the distance only with sheets and photos from the site. This house is real because of the good relationship and collaboration between the local architect Amancio Williams, another architecture master, that take care of adjusting, and fine tuning the project while building it. He was LC's eyes on Argentina and everything was resolved overseas by letters in a back and forth analog communication. This is a masterpiece, organically resolved and masterly design from conjunction of LC's mastermind and Williams's precise harmony...

Es uno de los lugares iconos de La ciudad de La Plata. Imperdible! Se puede visitar de martes a domingo hasta las 17hs

La Casa Curutchet es una vivienda unifamiliar diseñada por el arquitecto suizo Le Corbusier y construida en la ciudad de La Plata, capital de la provincia de Buenos Aires, en Argentina, entre los años 1949 y 1953. La dirección exacta es avenida 53 Nº 320, entre 1 y 2.

En 2016 fue declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco.

Historia Después de varios fracasos intentando construir una obra en América del Sur, Le Corbusier estableció una fuerte relación con los profesionales latinoamericanos y mantuvo correspondencia regular con el argentino Amancio Williams (quién le encargó inicialmente la construcción de la casa Curutchet). En 1948, el cirujano e inventor de instrumental quirúrgico Pedro Domingo Curutchet decidió volver a afincarse en La Plata y le encargó los planos de una casa a Le Corbusier, quien buscaba concretar el plan urbano que había diseñado para Buenos Aires. ​Declarada de interés provincial, turístico y Monumento Histórico Nacional en 1987, la casa es actualmente sede del Colegio de Arquitectos de la Plata, que la alquila a los herederos de Curutchet. El 17 de diciembre de 2010, el Senado bonaerense sancionó una ley que declara al inmueble “de utilidad pública y sujeto a expropiación”, para “preservar, enriquecer y difundir el patrimonio cultural, histórico, arquitectónico y urbanístico”. Es uno de los pocos proyectos de Le Corbusier en Latinoamérica y el Ministerio de Cultura y Comunicación francés con el auspicio de la República Argentina, Bélgica, Alemania, Japón y Suiza, la nominaron para integrar la Lista del Patrimonio Mundial de Bienes Culturales y Naturales de Excepcionales de la Unesco. En la sesión realizada el 17 de julio de 2016 en Estambul, la Unesco la declaró Patrimonio de la Humanidad, junto a otros tres nuevos lugares en su lista de obras diseñadas por el prestigioso...

The only work in south america for Le Corbusier (pioneer swiss architect) If you are foreigner you'll pay 150 pesos, if local 60 or 30, if local student 15 pesos. You have about 30 minutes to visit all the house alone. Take photos and set a little bit on the terrace. There are sketches for the place exhibited on 2nd floor, plus some of the house...
