Antoine Philippon & Jacqueline Lecoq

Her vocabulary in furniture designs represents a new direction taken by French designers in the late 50s and throughout the 60s. They rejected the industrial mode of French postwar design and aimed to return harmony, elegance, craftsmanship and comfort to the home. Her work was always modernist, sharp, and geometrical, with new interpretations of the principles formulated by the Union des Artistes Modernes, such as the purity of style while showing respect for the materials used.
