The Unité d'Habitation (la cité radieuse) is a housing estate designed by Le Corbusier together with architect and painter Nadir Afonso. When visiting Marseille I stayed in one of the apartments in this building and was caught by its extraordinary interior.

Especially the corridor, it was scarcely lit, with a low ceiling and glossy black floor which created a dark and mysterious yet spectacular experience to walk through as it seemed to be endless. In this series I visualised the daily walking through the corridor to and from the apartment.
