Immeuble Clarté

1932Geneva, SwitzerlandUNESCO

Immeuble Clarté
A multi-family building heavy on steel and glass. True to its name (clarté / clarity), openings and construction feel distinctly modern. From repeated dwelling units and a transparent façade, read how the free façade and construction relate in collective housing.
