Towards the end of his life, Le Corbusier, a dominant figure in 20th-century architecture, designed a museum for his life’s work on the east shore of Lake Zürich at Seefeld.
The Pavillon is seen as a “Gesamtkunstwerk”, in that it’s a work of art in its totality, like the Dalí Theatre and Museum in Spain.
The Pavillon would be his last major project, completed in 1967 two years after he died.
