Sumario:[EN] During the first half of the twentieth century Le Corbusier had his very first experiences with tapestries thanks to the gallery director Marie Cuttoli and especially the teacher at Aubusson, Pierre Baudouin. The architect had no doubt in putting his production of tapestry cartoons at the same level of the rest of his artistic creations, as Leger or Picasso did before. Then he began a reflection on both plastic and acoustic properties of the tapestries, which he experienced in such important works as Chandigarh or the Venice Hospital. All considerations in this regard were collected in several chapters of his Complete Works. But it is in the home where Le Corbusier recognized the greatest potential for the tapestry. It is in the domestic space where his experiences with tissue acquired their utmost importance. He elaborated a discourse that connects directly with the disquisitions of Semper and Loos on the spatial power of tapestry, and that gives it the ability to generate the home for the man that the 60s decade is molding.
