Iconic Le Corbusier Radiant City studio, a living manifesto of modern architecture
In Marseille, at the heart of the famous Le Corbusier Unité d'Habitation, a UNESCO World Heritage site, a rare property is revealed—a true collectible. More than an apartment, this fully restored studio is a total immersion into the visionary universe of the master and his collaborators, where every detail tells a story.
Located on the iconic level of the 3rd street, this studio benefits from a spectacular sea panoramic view and generous sunlight that enhance its pure lines. Here, light, beloved by Le Corbusier, becomes a material in its own right, sculpting the space and magnifying the horizon.
Entirely rehabilitated in accordance with the original codes, it celebrates the creative genius of Le Corbusier and Charlotte Perriand. The kitchen, designed by Perriand, unfolds in an exceptional state: a subtle blend of authenticity and modernity, embodying the spirit of elegant functionality, still current. The iconic shower cubicle recalls the boldness of a era that disrupted the codes of living spaces. The trompe-l'œil library concealing a laundry room and the numerous integrated cupboards illustrate the precision of spatial optimization, conceived to free up space and offer incomparable living comfort.
Each element, from the light switches to the door handles, has been faithfully reproduced to restore the original atmosphere. Sold furnished and equipped in the iconic style of the period, the subtle integration of modern comfort allows for a washing machine, a dishwasher, and air conditioning all in discreet fashion. This studio is a sensory experience as much as a living space: you do not just inhabit it, you enter a work.
In this timeless setting, between sky and sea, the entire modernist manifesto comes to life: the joy of living, thought by Le Corbusier and amplified by Charlotte Perriand. A frame of tranquility, a fragment of history, a prestige investment that speaks to enthusiasts as well as aesthetes in search of a unique property.
