Widely considered one of the most influential architects of the 20th century, Le Corbusier (Charles-Edouard Jeanneret) is credited with changing the face of urban architecture, bringing it into the technological age. Connecting architecture with revolution, his legacy demonstrates a strong, if utopian, sense of purpose to meet the needs of a democratic society dominated by the machine. “Modern life demands, and is waiting for, a new kind of plan, both for the house and the city,” he said in 1923.

Born in Switzerland, Le Corbusier, was encouraged by a teacher to take up architecture. He built his first house at the age of 18 for a member of his school’s teaching staff. In 1908, he went to Paris and began to practice with Auguste Pierret, an architect known for his pioneering use of concrete and reinforced steel. Moving to Berlin, Le Corbusier worked with Peter Behrens, who taught him about industrial processes and machine design. In 1917, he returned to Paris where he met post-cubist Amedee Ozenfant and developed Purism, a new concept of painting. In 1920, still in Paris, he adopted the pseudonym, Le Corbusier.
Kimberly is a rare person in the Puget Sound region; an actual native of the area. Having grown up in Bellevue, she graduated with a 3 year degree in Interior Design from Bellevue Community College. After spending several years in the commercial furniture industry, she began her career in designing kitchens with a Bellevue firm in 1993. Kimberly has raised the bar from the very start. Only 3 years into her career she became a Certified Kitchen Designer.
Two years later, in 1997, she designed the Best Kitchen, Street of Dreams. Projects designed by Kimberly have been published in Northwest Living Magazine, Better Homes and GardensBuilding Ideas. While these are great achievements, they are no surprise. She loves good design. The excitement in interior design doesn't always come from working on the biggest, most expensive projects. Often, the joy comes from providing a simple solution to a stubborn problem, or building a beautiful kitchen on a tight budget. Kimberly understands that successful design isn't just about creativity and the mechanics of design, although both are important; it's about listening to your clients, understanding what is important to them, and incorporating it into a project they will love. As Co-Founder of Kitchen Companions and KC Fine Cabinetry, Kimberly looks forward to putting these skills to use.

Paradoxically, Le Corbusier combined a passion for classical Greek architecture and an attraction to the modern machine. He published his ideas in a book entitled, Vers une Architecture, in which he refers to the house as a “machine for living,” an industrial product that should include functional furniture or “equipment de l’habitation.” In this spirit, Le Corbusier co-designed a system of furniture with his cousin Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand. The tubular steel furniture – including the famous LC4 Chaise Longue and LC2 and LC3 seating collections – projected a new rationalist aesthetic that came to epitomize the International Style.

Corbusier was both credited and criticized for his reinvention of the modern urban skyline – the efficient, yet austere buildings that he pioneered in Paris’ banlieues were the setting of a massive riot in 2005. Though Le Corbusier’s illustrious career came to abrupt end in 1965 when he drowned while swimming in the Mediterranean Sea off Roquebrune-Cap-Martin in France, his influence is undisputed.
