Le Corbusier's Pavilion for Zurich uses numerous handwritten documents, drawings,and papers to trace the history of Le Corbusier s last built work. This dwelling,which is also a museum, was initiated by Zürich gallery owner Heidi Weber. With itsabstract forms and colors, it represents an intellectual legacy of the famous architectin which the further development of architecture as envisaged by Le Corbusier isclearly legible.
