  Le Corbusier - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Born as Charles-Edouard Jeanneret in La Chaux-de-Fonds, a small town of Neuchâtel canton in north-western Switzerland, just across the border from France, Le Corbusier was attracted to the visual arts and studied under the tutelage of the teacher at the local arts school, Charles L'Éplattenier, who had himself studied in Budapest and Paris.
Jeanneret moved to Paris permanently at the age of 29 in 1916, shortly after he had begun to work on theoretical architectural studies using modern techniques.
In 1918 Jeanneret met the disillusioned Cubist painter Amédée Ozenfant, in whom he recognized a kindred spirit.

 BBC - BBC Four - Audio Interviews - Charles Édouard Jeanneret Le Corbusier
Born in Switzerland, Jeanneret trained as an artist, then travelled extensively, and finally settled in Paris.
Articles were signed with pseudonyms, and Jeanneret chose Le Corbusier, his mother's forbear, a name he retained thereafter.
He now began rapidly to develop his ideas for a new 20th-century style of architecture, drawing on engineering technology and using materials such as ferro-concrete and sheet glass.
