Alongside being an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecubicfeetdesign.com\/services\/architectural-design\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">architecture<\/a>, he was also a flourished writer, painter and an urban designer. Le Corbusier never pursued professional education for architecture though he had a great eye for visual arts.<\/p>\n<h2>Early Life<\/h2>\n<p>Le Corbusier was a magician when it came to combining functionalism and bold sculptural expressionism. He openly promoted geometric forms and open efficient spaces. Le Corbusier started his journey as an architect by self-learning at the libraries. He used to spend days in libraries, reading about architecture and philosophy and then visiting museums and sketching buildings alongside constructing their small models. In 1907, He started making voyages outside Switzerland to gain exposure in his field of architecture. He went to Italy, Germany and finally settled in Paris, France and started working there as a draftsman in the office of architect Auguste Perret, who is considered as a pioneer in the usage of concrete in residential construction.<\/p>\n<p>He continued his travel to other countries of Europe like Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria, Serbia and Rome. He wrote all about his travels in his book <strong>Le Voyage d\u2019Orient<\/strong>. Corbusier moved and finally settled in Paris for good in 1917 and began his architectural practice.<\/p>\n<p>Le Corbusier started getting famous for his unconventional work influenced by steamships. He introduced steel, glass and concrete shifting a way of constructing buildings previously. One of his famous building named V<strong>illa Savoye<\/strong> is constructed from reinforced concrete and masonry units.<\/p>\n<h2>Le Corbusier&#8217;s Significant Work<\/h2>\n<p>Whole life of le Corbusier is full of significant work that he did with immense dedication. Le Corbusier was ahead of time. His work is still considered as the work done in this century. One of his most famous piece of design is a modern French country house.<\/p>\n<h3>Villa Savoye:<\/h3>\n<p>Villa Savoye is one of the most famous work of le Corbusier. It is located outside Paris in Poissy. It is a modern take on a French country house and is still considered as the most significant contributions to modern architecture in the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_132\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-132\" style=\"width: 640px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-132 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thecubicfeetdesign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/34.png\" alt=\"Villa Savoye\" width=\"650\" height=\"488\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thecubicfeetdesign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/34.png 650w, https:\/\/www.thecubicfeetdesign.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/34-300x225.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 650px) 100vw, 650px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-132\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Credit: en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Villa_Savoye<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>UN Secretariat Building, New York:<\/h3>\n<p>There are many designed and constructed buildings of Le Corbusier that put him among the most famous architects of his time.
