“Perspective sketches by Jean Prouvé depicting a variant of the colonial house entirely in aluminum, with external stanchions, cross and longitudinal beams and roof pans. The in-depth study was never realized, but the J. Prouvé Workshops demonstrated by it the possible uses for aluminum in buildings, which they later put into effect in the Pavillon du Centenaire de l’Aluminum in 1954.”
