Villa Le Sextant, Modernist villa in La Palmyre, France.

Villa Le Sextant is a single-storey holiday house at 17 avenue de l'Océan in La Palmyre, in the commune of Les Mathes. Le Corbusier drew it in 1935 for Albin Peyron; the walls are rubble masonry of irregular light stones, and a band of dark rectangular openings runs along the flat roofline. A slate or flat roof caps the right section, and a low wall extends to the left of the facade.

The house was designed between 1934 and 1935 by Le Corbusier for Albin Peyron, who wanted a private seaside home for family getaways. Its construction reflects the modern design ideas of that period.

The house blends regional materials like local stone masonry and wooden frames with modern construction techniques of its era. This mix of traditional craftsmanship and contemporary methods shapes how the building looks and feels.

Access comes from the landside through maintained garden and drive areas. The building opens to the surroundings and visitors should wear appropriate clothing and watch their footing, especially in wet weather when glass surfaces and open terraces can be slippery.

Le Corbusier never visited the site: the tight budget covered only drawings and supervision, with plans produced in his studio and executed by local builder Béran, who had also built the Russian villa opposite. Albin Peyron sent sketches and precise requirements, and the first sketch dates from January 1935.
