Inside Le Corbusier’s LOST House Design [Errazuriz House]

[@stewarthicks]

What do you think of the Errazuriz House?

[@UGPepe]

the designer employs pretentious gimmicks to hide his gross ineptitude, something very french and very hipster

[@UGPepe]

Accountant The no you're not, and no I don't since there is no angst to speak of

[@unsampan9773]

@@oltedders Interesting, in the central part of Chile we do have significant rain during winter and is also specially humid by the coast. Despite that, I've seen some butterfly roofs around Santiago (few hours away from Zapallar) and they work just fine, taking into consideration central drainage of course.

[@loliloloso]

if the wing roof can be made to tilt (with an attack angle), so that the central axis is not horizontal, then the drainage is not a problem.

[@jonnda]

It reminds me of the kind of house you might see on Bojack Horsemen. Pretentious and expensive.

[@addama]

I recognize that this is not exactly on par with the discussion, but this design translates perfectly to a Minecraft build. Limited, natural materials, open spaces with some room specialization, emphasis on a view, level foundation, straight lines. The overall proportion would need to be adjusted to account for all the materials being the same size (a 1mx1m cube) but I think it could work.

[@yaguzi]

I know I’m kinda late, but I’ll give this a try. Will upload the world if I’m able to do something with it.

[@mostacho99]

Fellow Chilean architect here. It’s a shame the house was never built. I think it would have rise the level of “sea front” architecture we here, bringing international influences in a time where Chile was just starting to integrate the modern architecture. It’s a celebration of the vernacular material with a functional twist given by Le Corbusier. Awesome video!

[@animeaos]

[@SlashCampable]

What a great house! I've always been a fan of ramps over stairs, and the solution with the roof slope that mirrors the path to the loft is just... très bien. Usually Le Corbusier’s buildings feel a bit too sublime for my taste, but this one hits all the right spots. Grand but not imposing, open but not sparse, cosy but not cramped. I'd live there in a heartbeat.

[@ozloop69]

Thank you for showing this it reminded me of my childhood home when I was three and four years old but we had the most unique house in the area with our ceiling going the opposite weigh to everyone else’s and now have identified that design has come from a lot before this was around the 1940s the house was built by my grandparents or I should say commission by my grandparents for my parents thank you for making me realise that my grandparents or ahead of their time at the time

[@AnnMarieKing]

I really like this space plan as it seems so liveable, and I find the ramp intriguing as a bit of universal design well before it's time ... would love 3D modelling to eventually include the kitchens and bathrooms for context. Really enjoying this 'Lost Architecture' series.

I did not know that the Errázuriz had wanted to hire Le Corbusier to build a house. The family residence in Buenos Aires, built at a distance by René Sergent, is still intact and functions as a museum of decorative and oriental art.

[@Spencergundersenmusic]

I really like this simplicity in architecture. And the way that the house is create with the longitudinal mouvement( with the ramp in the center of the living room) is great and we don't see it a lot , the most time we work with de transversality to to keep the spaces bigger.( sorry for my english skills ahah) My heart stroke of Le corbusier house's is la Villa Le Lac ,Corseaux .

Hello

[@pierre.a.larsen]

It is an amazing house that still seems modern 91 years later. I wonder why it was not built. Perhaps it is not deemed practical? For a couple with the occasional guest(s) it seems very livable in my opinion. It would be interesting to see the actual site and how the views are presented. I am fairly sure it would be stunning both in terms of views and in terms of integrating into the landscape. Thank you for the very good presentation.

thanks you so much for putting the effort to make the video . i learn alot from your channel .

[@arte2arquiteto]

I used to work for the architect, Oscar Niemeyer in his Copacabana office . I once asked Niemeyer what he thought of Corbusier. His response was: "Ele era chato!" ("He was annoying!") As a student of architecture I traveled to many of Corbusier's buildings, especially near Paris. I found his works to be claustrophobic, geometrically controlled, and an amazing exercise in symphonic relationships between solid and void but perhaps his greatest attribute was his control of light within the spaces. Good examples of this are La Tourette Monastery and Notre-Dame du Haut...

[@terecthetec756]

[@gavranarh]

my guess is, unfortunately, people don't give a shit about architecture. as little as they ever did, I think now it's even worse. open to have my mind changed on that

[@白黑先生]

非常感谢博主分享,每次看到这些项目都热血沸腾.

[@PitPalmer]

There's one important gap in the timeline. In the early 40s, Oscar Niemeyer designed one of his first major works: the Pampulha Complex, that consisted of five buildings for a weekend neighborhood built around a lake: a church, a cassino, an sports club, a bar/club and the mayors house. On two of these, he used the butterfly sloped roof, and the Residencia Kubitschek (wich was the mayors house) was a huge success over the world and was the biggest influence for the californian houses, that seem to follow a very tropical, brasilian moder style. I realy love the Errazurriz House because it shows that Le Corbusier was really aware about the context of the building, while most people tend to say the opposite. Thats a big misinterpratation of his work, since he shows this many times in his carreer, in projecs like ville le sextant and others.

[@GhostedStories]

Thank you for this!

[@cristobalv]

Fun fact, ''Errazuriz'' in Chile it's something like the ''Kennedys'' in the US. And Zapallar Coastal city it's one of the most exclusive places to spend the summer in Chile.

[@stewarthicks]

[@pedrovisgueira]

Another great video, you don't miss. Also, I would love to see videos about furniture and interior design, I know a lot of the architects you've mentioned in your videos have designed some really nice pieces of furniture, would be awesome to see you talking about it in a video.

[@Sheboobellach]

Love how it's like a stage for the views without just being a wall of big windows. Very theatrical. And the rustic materials is gorgeous

[@saulorocha3755]

I think the real novelty is the interior of the house, very modern even to this day with the ramp instead of stairs and very open plan (the privacy of spaces like the fireplace and main suite given, with exception of the guest room, by height of the ceiling and furniture). Of course that is attained by a lavish waste of horizontal and vertical space. The exterior is so minimalist that might pass as ugly but I think it has some charm.

[@BischBaschBosch]

Really enjoying this content. The "Lost" series is such a good idea and partnered with the Enscape walkthrough links is, well, just very cool.

[@stewarthicks]

[@medusabeheaded]

Very cool and surprising how rustic it was. I was expecting to see metal beams inside. I love the modeling of it-what a great way to feel the unbuilt space. There are some Case Study homes that were never built that I would love to see modeled. I’m new to the channel and just an architecture amateur, but I love your videos!

[@samuel-sr2kl]

Its my understanding that Le Corbusier never made it to Chile to have an idea of local materials, even though the house seems to adopt them. This Aligns with later modernist local adaptations.

[@stewarthicks]

That makes sense

[@jonathanmuller5328]

Wendell Burdet. Have you seen the current residential designs of this Arizona master of modern design. He is a genius. I have watched his career ever since he saved the design and construction if the Phoenix public library by Will Bruder. Even today he is known for his ability to work WITH the contractors who construct his jewels in the desert. He will make an outstanding visiting crit and lecturer. Another desert modernist who would make a great visiting lecturer is Rich Fairbourn. He is a close friend of mine who designed apartments and commercial office buildings for my development firm.

[@johnfife3062]

FWIW, "lay" Corbusier (Fr = les) would describe the Corbusier family; The Corbusiers. When we speak of just the guy, it's "luh" Corbusier (Fr = le). You've given me free knowledge, I reciprocate. Thank you. For fun, check the relationship between Le Corbusier and Anglo-Irish designer Eileen Gray whose work LC admired greatly.

[@ezequielsamsolo7534]

My father. Sammy Samsolo, a pioneer architect from the early 1960s in the main Argentine coastal cities, built his own studio with the same geometry. that was the most famous house in our town for 60 years. the house still stands. and it has many exquisite details such as the main area with a home theater living room. Do you want me to send you some images ???

[@bubarules]

just by curiosity, was there any boxgutter detail on the original drawings? I would like to know how he resolved it.

[@SaiSantoshMARU]

Maybe that is why it wasn't built, the purpose was to make the view grand, not the house itself. A classic case where 'The frame is more attractive than the painting itself'

[@stevenikitas8170]

Its exterior has echoes of Ancient Greek architecture (but not the temples like the Parthenon). The irregular polygonal stonework was developed by the Greeks in Mycenae (1500 BC).

[@startupadmin540]

I’m no architect or mathematician but when you where line tracing Corbu’s design plan, I immediately thought of the Fibonacci sequence in a linear progression. Is it possible this was Corbu’s intention? This seems to be the case in my house, from the center point of the wing each room increases in size out to the end of the wing. Additionally, I was so surprised to learn Corbu had designed a butterfly styled building, that MCM design is almost always attributed to William Krisel or Joseph Eichler. Great video, thank you!

[@stewarthicks]

Maybe! Good idea.

[@danopticon]

Do you suppose Le Corbusier (or perhaps his students) built houses in Venezuela, either in Valencia or on the outskirts of Caracas? Growing up, my mom and dad knew lots of fancy people, and tended to take me with them when they went visiting … and I recall being in all sorts of big concrete modern homes, with the kinds of wild industrial features typically found in a Le Corbusier design.

[@vibecurator33]

This is great. You should do Terragni's Danteum !!!

[@vibecurator33]

And have a previous studio professor of mine to guest on the video, he plans to get the plan of the danteum tattooed on him haha. His lectures on Terragni and Corb are legendary. His name is Prof Richard Rosa from Syracuse Architecture.

[@lestermatos2989]

What program do you use for the 3D modeling?

[@justgivemethetruth]

I am not really sure why this butterfly roof would be thought of as a good design? Rain would go towards the inside of the house instead of naturally shedding off the sides and away from the house. I guess that is good for rainwater collection but any flaw or damage in the roof could be much more of a problem in this type house. That said there was a very nice house built by a guy in the desert and highlighted in a KZbin video that was a bit like this and it was beautiful.

[@douglasfur3808]

I've noticed that the common feature of a ramp is used to program how you experience the spaces. A willful promenade architecturale to force you to see the whole assembled in the intended manner. What would a video at a walking pace look like? 《Maybe its influence as an unbuilt project is due to its incompleteness which allows other immaginagtions to fill in the blanks.》

[@JEBavido]

Past the pleasing elements of view and angles I am surprised at the points that seem clunky. The fireplace cavity is quite unbelievably deep and where is the chimney? Perhaps I missed it within the side wall on its left? It would be interesting to see how this was handled in the Japanese house that was actually built and occupied.

[@yesh7183]

The fireplace cavity might be a bit overaggerated by what is shown in the render, than what's in the original design drawings.

[@JEBavido]

@@yesh7183 , maybe, but it must be the depth of both turns of the ramp.

[@simon7762]

I don't know much about construction or architecture, but is there a high risk of leakage when two inclined roofs meet like this?

[@garagewizzard]

Would it be possible to do these videos without the flickering transitions in future? It hurts my eyes, and I'm not sure if it adds value to the video

[@stewarthicks]

Definitely won’t do it again. Thanks for the feedback.

Please make video about Le Corbusier lone residential building in Latin America, the Casa Curutchet. thanks

[@richardengelhardt582]

Good lecture, with excellent visualization technique. It does however reconfirm why I do NOT admire Le Corbusier's architecture or would want to live or work in the spaces he creates (as I have had the experience of so doing for 3 years when I lived and worked in Chandirgarh, India, on a UNESCO project.) His spaces are spatially cramped and visually claustrophobic plus the manipulation of light entering from the exterior and hence the connection to external space, is unpleasantly disorienting and confining. My experience in Chandrigagh confirmed to me that I was not alone in feeling discomfitted in Le Corbusier's oddly impersonal architecture, in which all space is "institutionalized" through reductionism of forms below the level of functionalities. In Chandigargh, occupants all made major modification to Le Corbusier's architecture -- offices and homes and shops, all typologies -- in spite of strict government regulations against this intended to keep the Master's architecture intact and authenic. Nonetheless, occupants made many informal modifications -- knocking out new windows, re-organizing frenestration patterns to try to better regulate heat and ventilation, raising ceilings, adding tactile surface finishes for a variety of safety, visual, and environmental reasons, adding attached covered terrace/patio/balcony space (requiring new doorways), adding annexes to accommodate basic services/utilties/storage the spaces for which were either inadequate for use, or sometimes non-existant, and adding internal room dividers to create private spaces for sleeping (houses), security (shops), and offices. My conclusion is that our nearly-universal intellectual admiration for Le Corbusier's design rigor (an admiration which I share on an intellectual level) is purely academic with the congruency with application through construction that the practice of architecture requires as a fundamental principle. No surprise to me that the E House was never actually built, or that it inspired thousands of cheap knock-offs by greedy unscrupulous property developers. In the context of teaching and leaning architecture, this provides a salutory example of the architecture profession's fundamental requirement which is to take the abstract analysis of the geometry of architectural form and compare it to the physical requirements of space meant for occupation or other uses, ensuring at least compatibity, if not congruency between the two. This lesson recalls another lecture in this series (the one on architecture and geometry) in which it is made clear why the two preoccupations of the great architects of history have been (i) the precisely surveyed (measured) environmental setting of a building (external space), and (ii) the (measured) proportionality of created space in relation to human body size and the movement of the human body through the created spaces (internal space.)

[@aaron2709]

Looks like your model fixed the ridiculously big stones on the foundation in his original drawings. They made the house look tiny.

[@mhoga7899]

Sorry it was never built in Zapallar... would have been a great addition to the prettiest Chilean resort. Mito Julián carried on Le Corbusier’s works well after his death so Chilean architecture of that period has a big influence

[@Inkling777]

Many of us wish the plans for every building Le Corbusier designed had be lost and none ever built. When they called a school of architecture "Brutalism," there's a hint it not only looks ugly but seems intended for a robotized people living in a totalitarian state.

How curious that the end finishes of this house and sort of the typological synthesis it proposes with its materiality, resembles really firmly the traditional latinamerican colonial architecture but successfully "made modern" without the colonial limitations

[@charquican10000]

Hello, I am a Chilean architect and I know why that house was never built, the Errazuriz family did not like the design because the design was very simple and they wanted something more Le Corbusier style (modern, concrete, etc), Le Corbusier instead point out that it was based on the architecture of the typical Chilean colonial-style house

[@stewarthicks]

Thanks for the info!

[@fredphilippi8388]

The graphics are really good, but I would appreciate it if they ran more slowly. Like, don't rush me through the house, please. Give me a chance to look around. The low-ceiling foyer area in the Errazurig plan seems to repeat the Frank Lloyd Wright concept of a low ceiling foyer that welcomes the homeowner or guests into a more expansive interior space. (The opposite of today's popular 2-storey foyer w/ chandelier and grand staircase that, often as not, leads into 1-storey rooms.) The ramp seems to occupy a disproportionate amount of interior floor space. And a fireplace UNDER the ramp?!? Too much of a "mix of metaphors" for me. Then too, the house does not seem to know whether it wants to be modern or rustic; another mix of metaphors that does not work for me. Like others here, I never associated Corb with the butterfly roof. That roof style got very popular in Palm Springs, CA in the 1950s, but is seldom if ever employed today.

[@MisterJeffy]

Love your videos. One suggestion: the article 'le" in Le Corbusier is pronounced as if it rhymes with 'pu' in pudding.

[@diametheuslambda]

That flickering transition is thoroughly unpleasant even if you aren't epileptic. I am not fond of how the building limits ground access, which would seem desirable in a vacation home. There seems to be singular access to the rest of the plot and out of the property, and the two are separate. It wants you to admire, but not be outdoors. The side wing especially seems to require more leveling than strictly necessary, and I hazard a guess that site access for things like the massive pillars and the cost of earthworks tanked this build. And I'm not convinced it would actually work. Every functional space from stairwell to kitchen seems cramped. I'm not clear what climate it was intended for, but it doesn't seem to provide good cross ventilation for summer, and heating it would be challenging with the tech of that era.

[@Alexander_Rezner]

[@borromine]

This whole video feels very rushed. The feeling tone seems dissonant with the building. AND it’s very jarring to hear the architects name mispronounced. The “Le” is pronounced just like English. LUH. Very similar to the first part of “lullaby” The grid analysis was very interesting but I would have liked to see a different geometric analysis based upon Le Modulor abd the Fibonacci series. And lastly, why not call him “Corbu”? Widely used and easier to say. Some furniture would have helped with understanding scale of the plan.

[@MrVorpalsword]

Stewart, would you listen to how Le Corbusier is pronounced, by francophones please? (it is quite important when discussing architecture). The way you pronounce 'le' makes it sound like the french 'les' thus you 'pluralise' his name which is nonsensical - there is only one Corbusier, (which may solve the problem).
