Intro

This building at 2-4 rue Saint-Laurent (in the Villereuse area) can appear out-of-date these days, but when it was designed by the famous Swiss architect Le Corbusier in 1931-32, it was really a very futuristic project. Everything is made with steel and glass. The metallic frame frees the interior walls from all supporting functions.

The Clarté Building is one of the amazing creations designed by Swiss architect Le Corbusier.
In 1932, the architect worked together with a wrought iron craftsman to create the Clarté Building with its walls of glass that enable the light to shine through. This avant-garde masterpiece is now a historical monument. Made of both rigid and fragile materials, this building is also called the "glass house".
Located at the top of the Eaux-Vives district, this building is home to 48 apartments and offices.
