You are an expert of the work of Le Corbusier, you are a passionate about architecture, you are an art historian, you like beautiful houses, you are interested in our built heritage… or maybe you are just curious about discovering a house…., THE house a 25 years old man built in 1912 for his parents!
The Villa Jeanneret-Perret, also called Maison blanche (=”white house”) is Charles-Edouard Jeanneret’s first personal project as an independent architect
He built it for his parents in 1912 in La Chaux-de-Fonds, his home town.
The villa is classified by the Swiss Confederation as a work of national interest.
Storia, genio, conservazione e gentilezza concentrato a la Maison blanche !

Thank you very much for the wonderful time. Le Corbusier triggened my aspiration to become an architect. It is a honor to experience his one the first projects, his starting point. I would not forget what I saw, what I learnt here…!

Thank you so much for your time & love to tell us about the Maison blanche. The 2 1/2 hours we spent here were some that we will never forget. The only thing left that we have to do is watch the movie that was made here 🙂
A great friday morning, full of inspiration, the origins of a master, the origins of Le Corbusier.
So many beautiful things to see in this house… lights, colours, volumes…
