Architect's house inspired by Le Corbusier

In the heart of the 15th arrondissement, near the Place du Commerce and the Jeannine Manuel bilingual school, this architect-designed house inspired by Le Corbusier's Villas Jaoul has a surface area of ??227m2 (227.02m2 Carrez) with a wooded garden of 28 m2.
This freehold house was built in 1978 by Jean-Baptiste Combrisson, resident of the Villa Medici and collaborator of Roland Schweitzer, he is considered a pioneer in the revival of wooden architecture and a former student of Auguste Perret and Jean Prouvé .
In a quiet street, the property on 4 levels is built with the materials cherished by the architect, wooden windows and horizontal concrete bands alternating with the facade in real flamed bricks, double windows aligned on a vertical and a spectacular bay window of 5 meters whose openings respect the codes of Le Corbusier and give a very beautiful light to the whole.
The bricks used for the construction are artisanal and come from the last production of the last brickyard which operated historically in the 15th arrondissement, as explained by J.B Combrisson himself. They are all different with flame, yellow, red and ocher hues.
On the garden level, the entrance opens onto a 4m high hall revealing a glass walkway on the first floor. It is adjoined by the garden of 28m2 without vis-à-vis.
On the first level, are the first 2 bedrooms, one of which has its own bathroom and overlooks a dead end. This level is completed by a bright bathroom and separate WC.
On the second floor, the spacious master bedroom of 26m2 in double exposure has a nice view of the birch tree in the garden. It also has large storage spaces. This level is completed by a fourth bedroom on the dead end side, a bathroom and separate toilet. All the rooms are governed by the Modulor, ie the De Le Corbusier measurement grid based on the ? Gold number'. He arranges the architectural space so that the body recognizes itself in it.
On the third floor, rises the cathedral living room of 60 m2 bathed in light. Its height of 5 meters at the ridge gives access to the mezzanine, to the white wooden library, enhanced by the sober and metallic lines of its structure.
This level is completed by the semi-open kitchen area equipped and top of the range from the Bulthaup brand.
The last level, in the basement of three tiled rooms, hosts a family room, a bathroom and a large laundry room with storage space and the boiler room.
This detached house is a unique and exceptional product that will revive families and/or architecture lovers who wish to settle in an inspiring and unique place to live.
