Le Corbusier designed his own modest tomb in Roquebrune-Cap-Martin, France, completed in 1957 shortly before his death. Constructed of artificial stone, the grave reflects the modernist principles that defined his architectural philosophy, eschewing ornament in favor of elemental form. Designated as part of France's twentieth-century heritage, it stands as a final, understated statement by one of architecture's most influential figures.
