Light and shade in Le Corbusier’s studio-appartement in Boulogne-Billancourt, just across the periphery from Paris’ 16ème. Despite the space (and height) restrictions the architect designated for his Unité d’Habitation social housing models, Corbu’s personal abode sprawled 240 square metres over two storeys. Completed in 1934, his Immeuble Molitor apartment building was a prototype for the Ville Radieuse to come. Two façades were constructed entirely of glass—reinforced glass, glass bricks, clear glass—to form ‘glass curtains’ that would flood the apartment with light. Here, in his studio where he would paint, draw and write, the traditional construction of the concrete, brick and rubble feature wall poetically contrasts to the glass and steel of Corbusier’s Modernist vision.
