About Charlotte Perriand

Charlotte Perriand, a French designer and architect born in 1903, is one of the leading figures of 20th-century design. A graduate of the École de l'Union centrale des arts décoratifs, she was noticed by Le Corbusier and his cousin Pierre Jeanneret for her sober and streamlined vision, and she collaborated with them for nearly ten years on home furnishings.

Her work encompasses urban planning, architecture, and interior design: the Villa Savoye in Poissy, Villa Church, the Salvation Army's Cité de Refuge, and the Swiss Pavilion at the Cité Universitaire. In the 1950s, her approach took on a collective dimension, as evidenced by the student rooms at the Cité Universitaire in Paris.

Strongly influenced by Japanese and Brazilian cultures, she began working with wood, straw, and bamboo, which became her preferred materials: she furnished the Maison du Japon in Paris in 1957, then the Japanese embassy in 1966. A mountain enthusiast, she participated in the creation of the Les Arcs ski resort between 1967 and 1986. Throughout her life, this theorist of the art of living sought harmonious relationships between humans and their environment.
