Situated on the shore of the Lake Zurich, Le Corbusier's exhibition
pavilion is his last realised design. Based on his Modulor
proportional system and at the scale of a single-family home, it
demonstrates the potential of prefabricated elements to form a
perfect space for art and design. Commissioned in 1960 by Heidi
Weber, Zurich-based gallery owner and patron of Le Corbusier the
visual artist, this structure in steel and glass represents pivotal
aspects of his architectural philosophy and also points to the
future. Architects Silvio Schmed and Arthur Ruegg have carefully
restored the Pavillon Le Corbusier to its original state, including
the reconstruction of missing pieces of furniture and luminaires.
This book documents their research and the restored building,
featuring previously unpublished historic photographs and documents
alongside newly commissioned images by Georg Aerni.
