🏠 Le Corbusier's Final Masterpiece | Pavillon Le Corbusier 🏗️✨

📍 Zurich, Switzerland ◼️ This glass-and-steel pavilion was Le Corbusier's final architectural work , commissioned by his longtime friend Heidi Weber. Serving as a "biographical museum," it showcases the modernist pioneer's artworks, furniture, and personal artifacts —offering rare glimpses into his creative mind. ◼️ Originally conceived in concrete, the design evolved into a colorful enamel-and-steel structure (red, white, yellow, green) with a gravity-defying floating roof—a radical departure from his earlier works! ◼️ Inside, discover: 🖼️ 1931 installation art (replica) 🪑 Iconic LC chairs 🏺 Ceramics from Peru ☕ Café with lake views (Zurichsee framed like a living painting) ◼️ Don't miss: 🌀 The sculptural concrete staircase leading to a basement with: - 50 personal artifacts - Mini-library & architecture film room 📸 Rare photos by René Burri on the upper floor ◼️ Engineering marvels: ⚖️ 40-ton roof installed FIRST (then walls!) 📏 Modulor system panels (1.13x2.26m) for perfect proportions 🚗 Car manufacturing techniques used for durable enamel cladding Opened in 1967 (2 years after his death), this pavilion remains a living tribute to modernism's godfather. 📍 Höschgasse 8, 8008 Zürich #LeCorbusier #ModernistArchitecture
