Jean Prouvé: Versatile & Innovative
"Jean Prouve embodies a synthesis of Architect and Engineer, or more precisely, of Architect and Master Builder, for everything he touches as a designer is immediately imbued with an elegant sculptural form. His solution fulfill the demands of durability and industrial production in an exemplary way." - Le Corbusier

Maison de Jean Prouvé, 1954

“To top it all, I had to build my house, mostly with material recycled from workshop rejects.”
Jean Prouvé, excerpt from handwritten notes, 1983
It’s a “green” house in which Prouvé used industrialized components to arrive at a highly personal and poetic result. Prouvé’s house expresses concerns with our contemporary era, similar to the houses of the Australian architect Glenn Murcutt.
