Résumé
The most important works from 1917-1944 of Jean Prouvé,
one of this century's most significant designers and
constructors, have been gathered together in a low-priced
softcover edition.
Jean Prouvé ranks amongst the most innovative engineers and
designers of the 20th century. His influence on those who
have followed him has been extensive, with the renowned
architects Sir Norman Foster and Renzo Piano, and engineers
such as Peter Rice acknowledging their debt to him.
In this volume Professor Peter Sulzer has gathered together
Prouvé's most notable buildings including the Maison du
Peuple in Clichy near Paris, which is one of the
outstanding buildings in Functionalism, and the club house
at Buc airport. Also presented are excellent examples of
his furniture designs from the 1930s and 1940s. A
subsequent volume will cover his works in the years
1945-1984. This book is an ideal introduction to the work
of Jean Prouvé, testifying to his importance for 20th
century architecture and design.
