Le Corbusier’s Unité 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 Unité d'Habitation is arguably the most influential Brutalist building of all time. With its human proportions, chunky pilotis and interior "streets", it redefined high-density housing by reimagining a city inside an 18-storey slab block. Completed in 1952, Le Corbusier’s Unité d’Habitation in Marseille has been blamed for launching a thousand brutalist concrete apartment blocks around the world.
