CHARLOTTE PERRIAND

Charlotte Perriand是一名法国建筑师和设计师，曾为Le Corbusier工作，以设计工作室著名的管状钢家具而闻名。1937年，她离开了Le Corbusier的工作室，1940年开始与Jean Prouve合作。Perriand致力于创造功能和负担得起的设计。从机器时代的玻璃和金属美学转向了自然材料的实验。作为日本工商部工业设计部的官方顾问，她前往日本旅行，并为日本设计及简的设计之美着迷。 Perriand在1947年回到欧洲后重新开始了她的事业，在她的设计中创造了和谐与简约——她称之为“l’art d’habiter.。她继续与Le Corbusier在马赛的联合住宅项目上进行合作，并与Fernand Leger和Jean Prouvé在多个项目上合作。1985年，她在巴黎艺术装饰博物馆(Musee des Arts-Decoratifs)举行了回顾展，她至今仍是20世纪最有影响力的设计师之一。

Charlotte Perriand was a French architect and designer who worked for Le Corbusier and is known for designing the studio’s famous tubular steel furniture. In 1937 she left Le Corbusier’s practice, and in 1940 began collaborating with Jean Prouvé. Perriand worked to create functional and affordable designs. Moving away from the machine-age aesthetic of glass and metal, Perriand began experimenting with natural materials. She traveled to Japan as an official advisor on industrial design to the Ministry for Trade and Industry and became enamored with the simplistic beautify of Japanese design. Perriand revitalized her career upon returning to Europe in 1947, creating harmonious simplicity in her designs – what she called l’art d’habiter. She continued her collaboration with Le Corbusier on the Unité d’Habitation in Marseilles and worked with Fernand Leger and Jean Prouvé on various commissions. In 1985, her long career was celebrated with a retrospective at the Musée des Arts-Décoratifs in Paris and she remains one of the most influential designers of the 20th Century.
