Boulogne-Billancourt, near Paris
Opening hours (indicative): Can be seen from outside at any time
Villa Cook stands at 6 rue Denfert-Rochereau in Boulogne-Billancourt, outside Paris proper. Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret designed it in 1926 for William and Jeanne Cook; construction finished in 1927. The compact façade combines pilotis, ribbon windows and a roof terrace, expressing a new arrangement of domestic space rather than Art Deco decoration.
The villa remains a private home: free pavement observation only, without entering the garden or interior. It marks the Boulogne end of the Art Deco and modernism walk. Sources: Fondation Le Corbusier and French Ministry of Culture, Mérimée record PA00088078.
