The Le Corbusier Site in Firminy, located in the Loire region of France, is hosting an exhibition titled SOLAIRE, a sensitive odyssey. The event is inspired by the architectural philosophy of Le Corbusier, a pioneering 20th-century architect who believed that "the sun is the first element of all architecture." The exhibition will run until January 17, 2027, and is part of a celebration marking two significant anniversaries related to the site. SOLAIRE, a sensitive odyssey is an immersive experience created by Döppel Studio, a design firm composed of Lionel Dinis-Salazar and Jonathan Omar. The exhibition takes place within the Saint-Pierre church and its surrounding areas, transforming Le Corbusier’s iconic structures into a sensory journey. Through the use of light, shadow, and sound, the installation explores how these elements interact with architecture and human perception, evoking natural cycles such as the transition from dawn to dusk and the movement of the sun across the sky. The project features eight distinct installations that examine various states of light, including reflection, diffraction, reverberation, radiation, and darkness. These installations use the raw concrete of the church as a canvas for luminous experimentation, highlighting the flexibility of architectural materials and the emotional impact of light. The exhibition seeks to reveal how light can shape and enhance the experience of space, turning static structures into dynamic, living environments. In addition to the main exhibition, the Le Corbusier Site is offering an annual program that celebrates the themes of light and heritage. The program aims to engage visitors with these ideas in a joyful and thoughtful way. SOLAIRE, a sensitive odyssey is open to the public until January 17, 2027, and can be visited at the lower parts of the Saint-Pierre church, located at Rue des Noyers, 42700 Firminy.
