Villa Savoye is a private house designed by Le Corbusier in a small town outside Paris. This chaise is one of my favorite pieces of furniture.

I was fortunate enough to be in this room by myself and was able to explore the shapes and shadows cast by the furniture on this sunny but crisp winter morning.

This store sits on the left bank, not far from rue Boneparte. I was walking along enjoying the store fronts when I noticed the repetition of round shapes.
