Abstract
The article is devoted to one of the outstanding projects of the French architect S.E. Jeanneret-Gris (Le Corbusier, 1887−1965), built in the traditions of minimalism. Villa Stein-de Monzie is a residential building. The paper presents the analysis of the main architectural and design concepts of Charles-Edouard Jeanneret-Gris in the master plan, floor plans, facades and interiors. In this project, Charles-Edouard implemented for the first time all five of his famous principles of minimalist architecture (supporting columnar frame, flat roof, free plans and facades, large-format ribbon windows).
