Geneva - Immeuble Clarté

In a heavily built-up area below Geneva's Natural History Museum to the southwest rises the Immeuble Clarté, the only building of any size in the country designed by the Swiss architect Le Corbusier (along with his cousin P. Jeanneret). The outer walls, mainly of glass, of this block of apartments (1930-32) have no load-bearing function, being suspended from a steel skeleton.
