This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.
Built in Antwerp in 1927, Guiette House is perhaps one of Le Corbusier’s least well-known works. It is an early example of the International Style and was originally designed as the home and studio of painter René Guiette. The large windows at the top of the front facade allow light to flood into what was originally the artist’s studio space.
