Publisher's Synopsis
An important figure of modernism in the 1930s, and the principal protagonist of organic design in the 1950s, Charlotte Perriand was a true 20th century pioneer. Although her name has long been inseparable from that of Le Corbusier, in this volume, Charlotte Perriand is brought to a new light as her vital energy as well as the simple, rigorous, and natural forms of her furniture and integrated spaces are examined. Ultimately, this is the portrait of a free and generous woman, with a fascinating and active life, whose accomplishments continue to embellish our everyday life.
