UEA 31297Le Corbusier was interested in a new architecture for the industrial age and developed the concept of a building as a �machine for living in�. The Villa la Roche was built with reinforced concrete for Le Corbusier�s brother and for banker and art collector Raoul la Roche. La Roche, who had bought a number of works by Ozenfant and Le Corbusier, commented to the architect: �Your painting is at the level of your architecture and since it has come out of it, that it return there is logical�.
