The article is devoted to the early design and social activities of the extraordinary French architect Charles-Édouard Jeanneret known as Le Corbusier (1887–1965), who is considered to be one of the founders of European Functionalism. His first design and pictorial works are considered together with his trips to Western Europe and the Middle East. This experience helped the architect to create his first conceptual versions and models of the modern architecture, which will be described in our further works.
