- Welcome back, and I hope you like this new video about the Villa Savoye by Le Corbusier.
In it I focus on the complexity of his projects, the 5 points for a new architecture, polychromy, his connection between paint and architecture, and some contradictions of his work. It has been a great experience visiting the building, I hope you enjoy the video!

Can’t believe this thing was made in 1928.. Must be mind blowing to see such a house in that era..
until you live in it then you know how terrible the building is
It was considered ugly
@@Chrysobubulle almost mordern buildings are ugly
@@sek153 How Mrs Savoye didn't put a contract on Le Corbusier is beyond me. Her letters should be a sobering must-read for all Le Corbusier fanboys. It was to all effects unhabitable, defeating the most basic purpose of a house. Still, I understand the attraction: the house has a je ne sais quoi I find very pleasing. @mrartdeco is right in that seeing this villa for the first time in 1929 had to be mindblowing.
@@Chrysobubulle It's still considered ugly, plus being uninhabitable.
Visited this back in 2010. It was just me, and my friend, and the young attendant sitting at a table on the first floor. It was great to walk around with nobody else there, all to ourselves. To walk around and be inside, and experience it after seeing in history books for years, was fantastic.
The exterior is well covered, but the interior views of this video consist of a collection of close-up details. Except for the living room, there are no long views of the interior spaces. What do the bedrooms look like? The bathroom with its famous tiled chaise? It's shown in detail but not in context. We see faucets but not spaces. Does it even have a kitchen?
Good as far as it goes, but I would like to see more.
The camera moves too fast, to appreciate the spaces....and jumps around the building.
Amazing video - thanks so much for posting. For me, as someone who has gone to architecture school..... this building represents the start of everything that's gone wrong with architecture as a profession. In my country, the profession is almost an anachronism now; obsolete. And I think your video of Villa Savoye, showing it in so much detail, gives an indication as to why.
Thanks again. Will definitely subscribe to your channel.
A perfectly well produced video; great quality in all the details, from the narration, the script and the graphic and visual part. Congratulations!!
Much appreciated! You have interesting content as well! Keep up the good work :)
@@FourthWallArchitecture thanks!!!
As a architecture student, i am almost forced to like this building. But i just cant
Cuando estas parado frente a la casa en el verde jardin antes de ingresar, la naturaleza rodea y es el marco de la obra artificial y humana; al finalizar el recorrido de la rampa, en la terraza es la misma obra arquitectonica la que hace marco de la naturaleza !!!!!! GRANDE CORBU !!!!!!!!!!!
definitely reminds me the one I saw in Zurich also by Le Corbusier. Those thin columns and the way of distributing spaces with also thin walls and floors.
lovely to have you grace our feeds again
Thanks Finners!
The best Villa Savoye video. Forth Wall is back.
Appena laureato in architettura lo visitata nel 1985 era in restauro non nascondo l'emozione che mi ha suscitato.
Thank you for sharing!
When I see a Frank Lloyd Wright house (even Falling Water) I can really imagine living there. There is a kind of cosiness and homeliness about his domestic spaces. But Le Corbusier!? For me it's more like an art installation. Interesting spaces to walk around, but not necessarily somewhere it would be comfortable to live. I guess the clients of the Villa Savoye knew what to expect when they hired him. But the fact that they used the house for such a short time tells us something...maybe?
Hey Jay, thanks for writing,
I tend to think that Le Corbusier´s client is his architecture, and the clients were somehow, "just" a necessary element in the equation. The means and the end perhaps.
The fact that the house was in use for such a short period of time, could talk about this project, but not so much about his architecture - although they faced lots of issues after the project was finished. The house was not heated properly, leakages, ,etc…
Don’t forget that many of his buildings are still in use. But his principles for a new architecture, the vision of the house as a machine for living in, the use of new materials …all together change how the buildings are thought and therefore lived.
In comparison with Frank Lloyd Wright…What do we compare?Their architectures are very different, from starting points as architects, their materiality, principles… I get your point, perhaps his architecture feels more “usable”, and his spaces feel warmer. But if you look at their furniture, the answer would probably be the opposite…

It tells us that the second world war started cx
Excellent work, thanks for share!
Thank you AC! Appreciate it!
@@FourthWallArchitecture my pleasure! Keep doing your great job! In this video l especially liked when you put in evidence the fact Ville Savoye is at the same time the top and the end of the experimental period called "purism". I always loved how LC and Pierre Jeanneret have been honest about "working moved by the Zeitgeist" always trying to develope an architecture that could represent the Spirit of the Time and then, always reinventing their language. And also thanks for saying "LC and his cousin"!
Pierre Jeanerette is the always forgotten squire of Le Corbusier. But his contribution to their work was also very significant.
This video is amazing.
The camera work is phenomenal,
the editing beyong great,
and the ambience was rather enjoyable.
The weather did you good i believe, the moody clouds seem to complete the vibe of the villa. You have helped me a lot with my architectural project (basically a comparison between villa savoye and villa la rotonda). 18:19 what is that sound?
Anyway, your content is exhilarating. keep it up :)
I’ve waited for this day so long ago to say I love your video so much
Thank you so much! I am glad you like the videos!
@@FourthWallArchitecture So amazing video I like it
Pardon my ignorance but I don't understand the praises and why it's considered so important.
After reading the book by the Savoye grandson it is very evident that the villa had extreme problems regarding leaking water, dampness throughout, heating problems along with having no privacy in sound between rooms. A beautiful design, but not ready to have anyone living there. The Savoye family complained extensively over the years.
An excelllent doc. Thanks!
Thanks a lot David, appreciate it!
I’d wanted to visit this building for years and I finally got to visit in August 2023. We were lucky enough to get shown around the site by an architectural expert who spoke fantastic English. I appreciated it before I’d visited, but to see it in person…wow!!
It is a beautiful building, fabulous architecture but I was surprised to find that it wasn’t a success. Mme Savoie hated the building and there were issues. It leaked, it was freezing in winter and boiling hot in summer. Still, I think that it looks awesome and would happily have a home like that.
I have other Le Corbusier buildings on my visiting list when I next go to Paris.
Thankyou for making this video. Le corbusier is the architect whoes principals i started following since i entered architecture school. And it was very great to know more about the history and stories related to the structure. I really appreciate your efforts for showing all the detail insides of the structure and for telling us more about history of structure.
Richard Myer sure did follow Corbu. But Myer also found clients for his ideas. The Douglas House with the glass facing west was a disaster. Myers comment was that the site was ever right for the house. At least Wright told his clients to move the table from under a leaking skylight. I remember making home made skylights, they leaked most of the time.
A successful new approach with deep analysis of the building. This is my favourite early Corbu FW !
Thank you! I enjoyed it a lot. I want to know more about the garage and curious details about the architectural function
I have been hoping to visit Corb's work for years! This work and the video presentation reinforces that desire even more. Last year was an almost but then COVID reared its ugly presence so who knows maybe this coming yer we will make the trip.. Thanks for the presentation.
Very brilliant analysis of the Le Corbuisier's masterpiece. Greatings from Paris.
Many thanks ChromeOS! Appreciated!
Masterpiece???
It was a fail. The owners could never live in it because of leaks, poor heating etc. 😂
Thank you for video !!
Amazing video👏🏻👏🏻
Imagine finding out your new job site is right on top of your old project.
Amazing
Well done!
Thanks Harmanto!
What a strange experience. It seems like an empty museum, but the building is the subject of the museum.
Video detail level is beyond masterpiece, like the villa herself. Thanks so so much
Thanks a lot mmowoa! :) I'm glad you liked it
Absolutely loved the video. What I'd like to know more about is the comparison to 'normal' architecture of that period. How did houses look and how were they built in that era? I can imagine this project was far ahead of it's time!
Hey Auke, thanks for writing. The main differences that could be named for example are the sloping roof, load-bearing walls, smaller windows, ornamentation, more traditional layouts for the house/rooms, or the use of wood in structural elements ...its a combination/sum of many things.
Within Le Corbusier himself, you can search for photos of his first project, the Villa Fallet. Between that project and the Villa Savoye, there are only 20 years, and they are worlds apart. I wouldn't say that the Villa Fallet is "normal" architecture from 1905, because it still has some modern influences such as art nouveau elements, but it definitely isn't as revolutionary as any of the white villas.
beautiful, every video you give to us is a gift, thank you so much!

Damn this does look similar to the E.1027 by Eileen Gray.
Another amazing project that I have in my list. Hopefully I get to visit it soon. I am fascinated by it.
❤❤❤👍👍👍
Does someone know how was the villa Savoye isolated ?
Love the style of this video, shot so nicely! What do you shoot with?
I will do a video about the cameras/gear soon :) Stay tuned!
It might looks nice on the outside, but pity the person who lived in it. The house is a nightmare to live in
It look shit in both outside and interior
if only this video was uploaded a year ago when I was doing my art history project on this lol. great video nonetheless
Sorry Jacob :D Let me know when you have your next project, maybe I can prepare something haha! Or drop me a DM on Instagram, I'll gladly help.
Thanks for watching!
Would anyone know the slope of the ramp?
I dont know for a fact the exact slope, but from the sections i could find online, it should be around 15%. Rough numbers

18:20 fucked me up lmfaooo
It came from the upload! It was fully ok when I exported... - Sorry for that. Should I put a warning? :D
@@FourthWallArchitecture I think it’d help lol great video otherwise
Lovely video, indeed, but there is no walk-through 🤔
Looks like a workshop rather than a family house 😖
1:25
Nice video for architect enthusiasts, but this is clearly NOT a walk through and I have lost interest of the building halfway through the video because I have given very little visual information on what is actually in the building. Building plans does not help and not everyone can enjoy just looking at the plans.
As a stand alone building this house did not weather very well, similar to Michael Graves, and the other white architects. It must not rain on their buildings.
Looks a bit like a German school building…
subtitles please
Interesting.
However, too many moving out of focus shots.
It gave me nausea to watch.
Sorry. 🫢
When the building was completed it was not habitable for the first three years. The flat roof was not tight until the late 1940s. Flat roofs are still a problem today, especially in winter when there is snow. The Jewish clients were deported and the architect was not liable. For me, this house stands for everything that is wrong in Courbusier's idea, which is more than 100 years old. The end of design, total selfishness in architecture. Fanatic belief in ugly shoe boxes. When will modern architecture finally come about?
one ramp, one staircase…….I guess it misses a third solution: elevator.
It’s mostly ugly.
The constantly going out of focus gives me a headache, other than that nice video.
It takes a real genius to come up with a house that ugly. He succeeded?! My old construction boss used to say "Bullsh-t baffles brains."
This con artist architect was only remarkable for the ugliness of his creations and the ability to convince fools they were wonderful.
Interesting, I have always admired his buildings, but in close up it looks badly built, cold and uncomfortable.
EwItsBad.
Like forreal not great. Could have been so many more good
Ugly and soulless building.
Fancy words with an accent don't convince me to think a design looks any less boring.
I would immediately
plant more trees, bushes
and flowers arund it . . . . 🌷🌳🌿
@@ritahorvath8207 Yeah ... something ... all those fancy words they used must have been synonyms for sterile and lifeless. No landscaping ... makes it look institutional. Even then, It would still look like a school you go to after you get out of juvy.
The skill required to turn something fascinating into something boring. Talk rather than vision. Bah!
Bla bla bla....
