Jean_Prouvé Jean PROUVE 1901 - 1984 Jean Prouvé a traversé la presque totalité de ce siècle en restant en permanence en état de recherche. La maison qu'il s'est construite, en 1954, sur les collines dominant Nancy en est un témoignage. Prouvé occupait une place unique dans le milieu architectural; il était arrivé à maîtriser la fabrication, la réalité même de l'objet architectural. Sa pensée est une pensée active, elle s'exprime en terme d'économie, elle parle de la naissance des formes, jamais de l'objet fini. Il était l'homme moderne. Prouvé dénonçait le maintien de l'enseignement loin de la connaissance de la matière. Entre Prouvé et Le Corbusier, il y avait une différence de regard vis-à-vis du machinisme. (texte de Laurent Beaudouin paru dans la revue d'architecture AMC de juin 1984) L'oeuvre de Jean Prouvé a une force qui nous est révélée immédiatement. A être trop visible, beaucoup ne l'y ont pas vue. Nous parlerons de l'une de ses oeuvres les plus exemplaires, sa maison particulière.

Charles & Ray_Eames Charles and Ray Eames are among the most important American designers of this century. They are best known for their groundbreaking contributions to architecture, furniture design (e.g., the Eames Chair), industrial design and manufacturing, and the photographic arts. Charles Eames was born in 1907 in St. Louis, Missouri. He attended school there and developed an interest in engineering and architecture. After attending Washington University on scholarship for two years and being thrown out for his advocacy of Frank Lloyd Wright, he began working in an architectural office. Ray Kaiser Eames was born in Sacramento, California in the middle of the century’s second decade. Charles and Ray married in 1941 and moved to California where they continued their furniture design work with molding plywood.
Cabbagerose Tumblr Inspiration Sottsass Associati The Curator 09 Nov, 2012 Dear BFF, The ‘forever’ part is starting to feel like a real hassle. We’ve got kids now, houses, husbands. More things to disagree about and less time to disagree about them out loud. Which, of course, builds more closets for assumption and judgment, more need for the Lysol of talk-time. Proverbs says there’s a friend who sticks closer than a brother. The problem with siblings, though, is that they stick around. I’d really rather just be smug in my judgments. Or, I’m thinking I could find some fresh meat, some new friends. See, I’m getting a little older and it’s becoming more and more important to me to be comfortable. What I’m saying is that I’d be fine if you would just give me a little space. April Schmidt April Schmidt teaches writing at Bethel University in St.
