Architectural design | Le Corbusier design time|1956-1959 picture | M. M. Czarnecki Corbusier's living machine WohnmaschineUnite d'habitation, Type Berlin, also known as Corbusierhaus, is located near the Berlin Olympic Park, and is the third work in the Le. Corbusier Unite d'habitation series (the first and second are Marseille and Nantes apartments respectively) The building was built at the Berlin International Architecture Exhibition in1956-58, 17 floors high, with 557 apartments. The building adopts Corbusier's usual overhead structure, the upper body is framed on the concrete wall on the ground floor, and is built with beton brut ( rough concrete. It is an early prototype of the rough style. At the same time, the design also implements Corbusier's modular unit system. It is also reflected on the facade. The interior of the apartment contains shops and public spaces, making it an autonomous "vertical" city. The diverse color design of the balcony and the reliefs on the ground floor also make the building a work of art. Most apartments are designed for leapfrogging, with the entrance to the building located on 10 corridors called "Inner Streets". It took only 18 months to build and all structural elements were made on site. In 1995, the building was listed on the protected building list.
