It is the last building designed by Le Corbusier marking a radical change of his achievement of using concrete and stone, framed in steel and glass, in the 1960s created as a signpost for the future.
Le Corbusier made intensive use of prefabricated steel elements combined with multi-coloured enamelled plates fitted to the central core, and above the complex he designed a 'free-floating' roof to keep the house protected from the rain and the sun.

The most prominent architectural element, the roof, consists of two square parts, each side having a surface of 12 x 12 metres (39 ft).
The total ground surface measures 12 x 26.3 metres (86 ft), consisting of welded metal sheets and having a weight of 40 tons.
The roof was prefabricated and thereafter, in the biggest possible units, transported to the building site, where it was assembled on the ground.
The two finally welded parts of the roof were then lifted to their final height (9 metres (30 ft)) by a crane and fixed on the pillars.
With the frame thus completed, the construction process benefited from the independent roof protection which was at that time already in its proper place.
It consists of cubes 2.26 x 2.26 metres (7.4 ft) which were assembled on the site.
Walls, windows, ceilings and floors were then screwed onto the steel frame.
The walls consist of enamelled panels measuring 1.13 metres (3.7 ft) x 2.26 metres (7.4 ft).
The placing of these enamel panels was planned according to a particular rhythmic system.
Finally, the entire building complex was placed on a concrete ground floor.
The building has two floors – five single-storied and one double-storied rooms.
When constructing the building complex, more than 20,000 bolts were used.
