Jean Prouve (1901-1984) was one of the most renowned design
engineers of the 20th century. This volume, the second in
Birkhauser's 4-volume edition of Prouve's Complete Works, covers
the period between 1934 and 1944, including such significant works
as the "semi-metal" Chair no. 4 and its variations, which went into
serial production from 1935 onwards, office furniture for the
Parisian Electricity Supply Works and seating for the lecture hall
of the Ecole des sciences politiques in Paris. In 1934 Prouve's
workshop commenced production of entirely pre-fabricated sheet
metal buildings such as the Flying Club at Buc. One of the triumphs
of this period is the Maison du Peuple communal hall in Clichy, an
outstanding monument of functionalism and a "hymn to metal and
folded sheet." This volume also includes texts of previously
unpublished conversations with Prouve about the Flying Club and
Maison du Peuple.
