Jacques-Émile Ruhlmann, Pierre Chareau, Robert Mallet-Stevens, Charlotte Perriand, Eileen Gray: together these designers and their contemporaries pioneered the look of the modern French interior during the 1920s. Moderne presents the finest examples of this work in more than two hundred plates, selected by the curator of the Wolfsonian museum and faithfully reproduced to preserve their original color pallets. This sumptuous volume is comprehensive in scope, beginning with the early art moderne of Ruhlmann and concluding with the avant garde work of Gray and Perriand, discussed in an essay by historian Jeremy Aynsley. Designers’ biographies and a brief bibliography are also included, making this an inspirational resource for interior designers and architects, and an indispensable reference for historians of the modern era.
