Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret & Charlotte Perriand

Le Corbusier (1887-1965), Pierre Jeanneret (1886-1967), and Charlotte Perriand (1903-1999) were pioneers of modernist design and architecture, collaborating on several influential projects. One notable work is the Unité d'Habitation in Marseille, a groundbreaking residential building that promoted communal living and social interaction. They also worked on the Villa Savoye, illustrating the Five Points of a New Architecture with open floor plans and a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. In furniture design, their union produced iconic pieces like the LC4 chaise longue, emphasizing ergonomics and simplicity. Their work embodied a vision of modernism that enhanced everyday living.
