Le Corbusier Unit?? D'habitation Art Print Mid-Century Modern Brutalist Architecture

Le Corbusier's Unit d'habitation Art Print. After illustrating several Brutalist buildings, I thought it was about time I did one of the 'grand master' of the Brutalist- modernist movement, Le Corbusier. Le Corbusier's Unit d'Habitation is arguably the most influential Brutalist building of all time. With its human proportions, chunky pilotis & interior streets, it redefined high-density housing by reimagining a city inside an 18-storey slab block. Completed in 1952, Le Corbusier's Unit d'Habitation in Marseille has been blamed for launching a thousand brutalist concrete apartment blocks around the world. (including the mammoth Kanchenjunga tower in Bombay) The Unite d' Habitation was the first of a new housing project series for Le Corbusier that focused on communal living for all the inhabitants to shop, play, live, & come together in a vertical garden city. Le Corbusier believed the tower block was the solution for rehousing the masses that had been displaced during the second world war, & that high rise building could be used to create spacious city homes with the same amenities as a typical street. Unlike a typical apartment block, this arrangement meant that these access corridors - known as streets - only needed be accommodated on every third floor.
