Maison Jeanneret
The former home of Pierre Jeanneret, Le Corbusier's cousin and chief architect of Chandigarh, displaying his classic teak furniture.
Pierre Jeanneret lived and worked in Chandigarh for 15 years, leading the design of many houses, schools and government buildings. His house in Sector 5 is now a small museum, displaying the teak and cane furniture he designed, which now sells for high prices at international auctions, along with manuscripts and photographs of his life. The house itself is a model of early Chandigarh residential architecture. The museum is small and suits architecture and design enthusiasts. It is closed on Mondays.
