Villa Savoye

Villa Savoye is a modernist house designed by the Swiss architect Le Corbusier, built between 1928 and 1931 in Poissy, France. It exemplifies Le Corbusier’s architectural principles, emphasizing functionality, open spaces, and harmony with nature. The structure features pilotis (supports), a flat roof, and an open floor plan, allowing for natural light and airflow. Villa Savoye is significant for its innovative design and is considered a key example of the International Style. It illustrates how modern architecture can create a seamless relationship between the building and its surroundings. The villa is now a historic site and architectural landmark.
