Le Corbusier paints and wallpapers
Charles-Édouard Jeanneret-Gris became one of the most influential architects of the 20th century under the pen name Le Corbusier. Unlike many of his contemporaries, he considered the color scheme of a building to be as powerful a design tool as its floor plan and section. In 1931, he therefore developed his first own, architecture-related color palette. It consisted of 43 colors in twelve moods, which bore such imaginative names as "Space", "Sky", "Velvet", and "Sand". In 1959, he supplemented this first palette with 20 additional deep, dynamic hues such as vibrant variegated hues, earthy, powerful color values, and rich blacks.
Le Corbusier's choice of colors, which he himself called "Polychromie Architecturale", was subjective. Perhaps for this very reason, it is characterized by a unique aesthetic that has lost nothing of its beauty, power and relevance even after decades.
All the shades of the colour scale he developed can be harmoniously combined with each other. "Polychromie Architecturale" is still regarded today as both a practical tool for architectural design and a work of art.
Le Corbusier's 63 masterful shades are now available under the brand poLyChro®, Les Couleurs® Le Corbusier - transformed into color formulations of unique quality. Thanks to their special formulation, they offer a perfect symbiosis of velvety matt surface and fascinating depth of colour: poLyChro® colours are full of life, enormously intense and yet restrainedly elegant.
They are manufactured exclusively by the long-established German paint manufacturer Keim, which, as the world market leader in silicate technology, stands for the highest standards of quality and sustainability.
