Dimensions (large model): H: 39.5; D: 30 cm. Dimensions (small model): H: 28.5; D: 30 cm. Charlotte Perriand (1903–1999) was a French architect and designer. After studying at the École de l’Union Centrale des Arts Décoratifs in Paris, she founded her own interior design firm. She notably worked with Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret in Paris in the 1920s, as a partner in charge of furnishings and furniture. This experience allowed her to hone her technical skills, expand her knowledge, and broaden her references, enabling her to develop her own style, characterized by a fresh approach and a modern sensibility toward design. It is worth noting that throughout her career, Charlotte Perriand collaborated with the greatest names in the field. In particular, she joined the Steph Simon Gallery alongside Jean Prouvé and collaborated with Serge Mouille, as well as Francis Jourdain, Raymond Templier, and Eileen Gray.
