Villa Baizeau is a residential home in the Carthage Palace, Tunis, Tunisia designed by Swiss modernist architect Le Corbusier in 1928.[1] The building is the only work in Tunisia by the architect.[2]

Le Corbusier designed the entire project remotely; neither he nor any member of his staff visited the site before, during, or following construction of the building.[3]
