That’s the design fruit (In botany, a fruit is a plant organ that protects a seed…) Close collaboration between Le Corbusier and his partner André Wogenscky.

The ground principle of this construction supports (Piles traditionally refer to piles of wood driven into the ground…) allows to connectorganization (It is an organization) horizontal internal spaces with a steep slope of the ground (but that soil (Earth is the third planet in the solar system in order of distance…) has become “liberated”. empty land (Wasteland is land or territory that is no longer cultivated or cultivated, even…) dirt, without any vegetation)[évasif].

Le Corbusier declared: “This rough concrete monastery is a work of love. He doesn’t talk to himself. He lives from within. The main thing happens inside.”
The church, realized with a sharp economy, is the subject of a special program on it light (Light is a collection of visible electromagnetic waves…). Its lighting and that of the chapels in the apsidioles are handled by means of a multi-well installation. day (A day or day is the interval between sunrise and sunset; it…) intended as chimneys, metaphorically called “light balls” because they create the effect of concentrated spots of light projected onto the ground – (the “pull” of light is towards the inner part of it that we choose to reshape, limit ourselves…)[évasif].
The cells of the Dominican friars adapt Le Corbusier’s modular principle to optimize minimal individual space.

A canteen for large gatherings is even more preachy communication (Communication also applies to humans (intrapsychic, interpersonal communication, etc.)with large bright windows that integrate the panorama into the architecture.
The roof terraces were restored in 1981.
