Abstract
The article is devoted to one of the most famous projects of multi-storey residential buildings made in the traditions of functionalism and brutalism by S.-E. Jeanneret-Gree (Le Corbusier), a French architect. According to its creator, the Housing Unit (1945-1952) is the next work in his creativity. Upon its completion, S.-E. Jeanneret-Gree joined the Pleiades of outstanding modern architects, having the opportunity to freely experiment with a variety of architectural styles (modernism, brutalism). The paper analyzes main architectural and design concepts of CharlesEdouard, implemented in the general and floor plans of this unusual building.
