The Atelier Maison Ozenfant, designed by Le Corbusier in 1922, is a notable early work of the architect, showcasing his emerging modernist style. Located in Paris, France, this building was designed as both a studio and residence for the avant-garde painter Amédée Ozenfant, a friend and collaborator of Le Corbusier.

Embodying the principles that would later define Le Corbusier's architectural philosophy, the Atelier Maison Ozenfant is characterized by its functional design, geometric forms, and emphasis on light. The building's facade is strikingly modern for its time, with a stark white surface, ribbon windows, and a lack of decorative elements, reflecting the architect's belief in the aesthetic of pure form.

One of the most distinctive features of the atelier is its large north-facing studio window, designed to provide consistent, diffused light ideal for painting. Inside, the space is organized efficiently, with a focus on simplicity and the practical needs of an artist's studio. The use of raw, industrial materials such as reinforced concrete was innovative for residential architecture at that time and signaled a shift towards modern building techniques.

Atelier Maison Ozenfant is not only a significant work in Le Corbusier's early career but also an important example of the transition to modern architecture in the early 20th century. The building reflects the architect's exploration of new forms and functions in architecture, setting the stage for his later, more renowned projects.
