Zurich is the “New Paris” . Zurich is amazingly clean and has beautiful Architecture, Flowers in all the public spaces, and transit runs like a well wound watch!
First of all, Le Corbusier Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, known as Le Corbusier, was a Swiss-French architect, designer, painter, urban planner, writer, and one of the pioneers of what is now called modern architecture. He was born in Switzerland and became a French citizen in 1930.
Truly the father of Modern Architecture, his last project is in Zurich.
The Pavillon Le Corbusier on Lake Zurich is considered an architectural jewel. The building was initiated by Heidi Weber, who commissioned Le Corbusier and oversaw its completion in 1967. It is the last building designed by the important architect and his only building made of steel and glass. After extensive renovation, the structure now shines in new splendor and invites visitors to take a unique “architectural promenade” through its various floors. Since 2019, the pavilion is run as a public museum by the Museum für Gestaltung Zürich on behalf of the City of Zurich

As you can see, very modern, yet designed years ago! Le Corbusier believed that architecture was a comprised of function, form and light! somethings never change. The only thing I would add to that is texture and color!
