“La Maison Radieuse” is emblematic of Le Corbusier’s vision of architecture for the good of human development.
Le Corbusier’s vision was to create a form of architecture that would lead to human fulfillment. This building, which can be seen from different points in Nantes, is the second residential building designed by the famous architect. It was inaugurated in 1955, following his first version in Marseilles, and before that of Berlin.
