Unique collection of 10 pine Charlotte Perriand tables - 1920's

A unique collection of 10 perriand tables. Very pretty solid pine table by the french designer charlotte perriand, this model was created in the 1960s for the creation of the les arcs ski resort. Charlotte perriand (24 october 1903 – 27 october 1999) was a french architect and designer. Her work aimed to create functional living spaces to believe that better design helps create a better society. In her article "l'art de vivre" from 1981, she states "the extension of the art of dwelling is the art of living — living in harmony with man's deepest drives and with his adopted or fabricated environment." charlotte liked to take her time in space before starting the design process. In perriand's autobiography, "charlotte perriand: a life of creation", she states: "i like being alone when I visit a country or historic site. I like being bathed in its atmosphere, feeling in direct contact with the place without the intrusion of a third party." her approach to design includes taking in the site and appreciating it for what it is. Perriand felt she connected with any site she was working with or just visiting she enjoyed the living things and would reminisce on a site that was presumed dead.
