This 113-meter concrete tower by André Wogenscky, a disciple of Le Corbusier, is a textbook example of 1970s functionalist design. Inside, the Mobilier national has filled the brutalist spaces with vintage furniture and artworks that perfectly match the era.

Built by a Le Corbusier disciple, this 113-meter concrete tower opens its doors just once a year. Wander through time-capsule reception rooms, a helical ramp, and the Salon d'Honneur where a monumental Victor Vasarely tapestry hangs.
