Le Corbusier's painting & architecture

In Le Corbusier's buildings, we normally see box-shaped buildings. These give sense of minimal and mass produced. If we look at mass produced creations; for example, industrial products, we'll see the repetition in terms of pattern and form. I think Le Corbusier had brought a creative way of making an individuality by connecting painting to architecture. 




The outline of Villa Stein looks quite simple and minimal, but in my opinion, the part that show the individuality is the interior composition. It doesn't only consist of rectangular shape components, but it also consists of curve. The way it was influenced by the painting has made the house become interesting and individual. I think the out line is like a frame of canvas where Corbusier composed the elements into. 


The influenced from painting can also be seen on the skin of the building; Unite d'Habitation. Although the building looks structurally repetitive and mass produced, the color and the arrangement of windows could help creating individuality for each block.
