Maison La Roche-Jeanneret was in fact designed as two houses, for two different clients with completely different requirements. La Roche, a swiss banker andSbachelor collector who wanted to use his dwelling to display his superb Purist and Cubist works of art. And Jeanneret (Le Corbusier’s Brother) who was newly wed, and required a compact house.
