PATRONAGE AT THE CITÉ INTERNATIONALE

The Cité Internationale has always drawn on the generous support of key private donors such as Emile Deutsch de la Meurthe and John Rockefeller Jr.

The Cité Internationale has now reached a turning point and is on the verge of launching a wide-ranging development campaign to renovate and enhance its architectural heritage, pursue intellectual and cultural projects and offer new scholarships. Why not support to this new drive?

LES MAISONS CLASSÉES MONUMENTS HISTORIQUES (1/5)

La Fondation suisse de LE CORBUSIER et Pierre JEANNERET

12/08/2010

Premier monument de la Cité internationale classé Monument historique, en 1986, la Fondation suisse en est le chef d’œuvre le plus connu. C’est aussi le premier édifice moderne construit sur le site, signé par nul autre que LE CORBUSIER et son cousin, Pierre JEANNERET.
Architecte de génie et chef de file de l’architecture moderniste, LE CORBUSIER conçut une véritable "machine à habiter".

Inaugurée en 1933 après deux and de travaux, elle est l’illustration parfaite des "cinq points d’une architecture moderne" : double rangée de pilotis dégageant le rez-de-chaussée, plan libre pour l’accueil, façade libre en mur rideau, fenêtres en longueur et toit terrasse.
Détérioré par une forte exposition au soleil, le bâtiment a été partiellement rénové en 1957 et 1958 par l’architecte MOREILLON, sous le contrôle de LE CORBUSIER.
