Larch uprights, eleven steps in exotic wood. Ramps in black lacquered metal made by Jean Prouvé workshop. Restoration of use and maintenance on the ramps. Provenance: Housing unit, Briey en Forêt. The staircase, identical in each duplex, is the result of a close collaboration between Jean Prouve and Le Corbusier. Its beginnings date back to 1922. Le Corbusier wanted to create then "vertical garden cities", capable of responding simultaneously to the aspiration of the individual house (in contact with nature) and to the advantages of the collective building (access to modern facilities ).

The goal is to house the population then in full increase in connection with the expansion of iron mines and the steel industry. In 1955, Le Corbusier officially contacted the Briey town hall, he was named chief architect of the project and André Wogenscky...
