Villa Savoye
Le Corbusier's "Five Points" of modern architecture, executed at full scale as a white box on stilts.
Why this matters
- Pilotis lift the volume off the ground; ribbon windows wrap the facade
- Free plan, free facade, roof garden — the modernist manifesto in plaster
- Almost demolished in the 1960s; saved by André Malraux
- UNESCO World Heritage Site (2016)

Critics
“Villa Savoye is the manifesto built. Five points written in white plaster, suspended above the grass.”
