This paper aims to elucidate the process of prototype generation in Le Corbusier's architectural work for La Tourette. He projects universal architectural forms on various sites, strategically adapting these general patterns to each particular site. To analyze his viewpoint concerning site-prototype relationship, this research investigates the vault, loggia, roof-terrace and sculptural elements as meaningful prototypes in La Tourette. Visiting the site, Le Corbusier felt a need to orientate the building to the west. The prototype-site adaptation was not an instantaneous solution, but Le Corbusier's process of the realization of an architectural scenery to the west was influenced by the place.
