Taschen Basic Art Series 2.0 Jean Prouvé

A Taschen Basic Art Series 2.0 hardcover on Jean Prouvé, measuring 10.5 x 8.5 x 1 inches across 96 pages and weighing 1.3 lb. French-born Jean Prouvé (1901–1984) was the 20th century's leading construction designer, a self-declared constructeur and member of the jury who oversaw the design of the Centre Pompidou in Paris; as a designer, he captured the midcentury spirit of innovation, expansion, and growth, developing techniques that united simple, striking aesthetics with practical, cost-effective materials and assembly. From vast, temporary exhibition marquees to handheld letter openers, modular building systems to interior lighting, Prouvé's designs efficiently fitted their function with minimal fuss and understated elegance, leaving a rich and inspirational legacy that this compact volume neatly summarizes.
