The architect of the modern apartment block<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nOf Polish origin, Jean Ginsberg (1905-1983) belonged to the first generation of modernist architects trained by Robert Mallet-Stevens and Le Corbusier. He studied architecture in France at the \u00c9cole sp\u00e9ciale d\u2019architecture, where Robert Mallet-Stevens was teaching at the time, and then joined Joseph Marrast\u2019s workshop at the \u00c9cole des beaux-arts. After completing his studies, he worked for a few months with Le Corbusier, then with Andr\u00e9 Lur\u00e7at, before opening his own agency in 1930. His training with avant-garde figures influenced his work, both aesthetically and constructively.\r\n\r\nThe buildings he constructs in Paris, intended for an affluent clientele, combine modern facades with new comfort standards. In the 16th arrondissement, he built several modern buildings, such as the building at 42 avenue de Versailles on the semicircular corner or the building at 5 avenue Vion-Whitcomb with its graphic fa\u00e7ade, which he built with his associate Fran\u00e7ois Heep.\r\n\r\n<\/div>","link":"https:\/\/www.architecturedecollection.fr\/en\/product-category\/architects\/jean-ginsberg\/","name":"Jean Ginsberg","slug":"jean-ginsberg","taxonomy":"product_cat","parent":527,"meta":[],"menu_order":0,"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.architecturedecollection.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat\/1927","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.architecturedecollection.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.architecturedecollection.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/product_cat"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.architecturedecollection.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat\/527"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.architecturedecollection.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?product_cat=1927"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
