Maison Planeix, Modern architectural residence in Quartier de la Gare, France.
Maison Planeix is a residential building with workshop spaces, distinguished by large windows, geometric forms, and multiple levels. The combination of living and work areas creates a functional structure suited to the lifestyle and creative pursuits of its original owner.
The house was designed in 1928 by an architect who embedded five revolutionary principles into the design. The structure was built for a sculptor and marked a turning point in French residential architecture of that era.
The house shows how Paris began modernizing in the 1920s, with open spaces and new materials replacing traditional forms. Visitors see in it the shift to a different building approach that many Parisian homes would later follow.
The building stands in a Paris neighborhood near railway areas and is visible from the street. It remains a private residence, so visitors can only get an impression of the architecture from the outside.
The ground floor contains workshop spaces instead of the originally planned freestanding column structure. The owner, a sculptor, requested this change during construction to create a directly usable work area.
