From the white plastic bed for the Prisunic catalogue (1966) to the
Culbuto armchair issued by Knoll, and from the Lip watch to the
private apartments of the Elysee Palace, Paris, (1983), the
furniture and objects conceived by Marc Held have been emblematic
of the renewal of French design, following the line of
Scandinavians such as Alvar Aalto and Arne Jacobsen...With his
gallery L'Echoppe on the rue de Seine, Paris, and then with his
agency, the designer and architect Marc Held also took part in
major projects for IBM and Renault. This book traces fifty years of
design, whose success with the public at large has contributed to a
great liberation in our style of life. The generosity of his vision
has remained faithful to the humanist values that guided his
childhood in Bagnolet, where he was born in 1932. Having settled in
Greece, on the island of Skopelos, over twenty years ago, Marc Held
still continues to build houses and furnish them with his
creations, working closely with Greek craftsmen.
