beside some of his Prouvé structures Seguin knew the Maxéville Design Office might still exist He had driven by the original site where it had stood And he had seen Le Bounty without realising that it was indeed the Prouvé structure – for it was now covered in blue aluminium siding and stuck on top of another building Archive photography courtesy Galerie Patrick Seguin Seguin documented how he discovered the Design Office before having it restored to its former glory Prouvé's Maxéville Design Office furnished with Prouvé's 'Bureau Présidence' and 'Fauteuil Direction' chair The Design Office

demountable house created for the noisy-le-sec experimental site was successfully presented at the ministry of reconstruction’s new house competition in early 1947 while originally intended as a demonstration it proved an efficient method of prefabricated housing the building was originally conceived by by jean prouvé in the 1940s one of its rare uses was as the design office of jean prouvé’s atelier strategically positioned at the entrance of the factory the structure contained design prototypes before they were reviewed for production due to a disagreement with majority shareholders

coveted today as well as structures that could be easily dismantled and moved including furniture for hospitals and office buildings and temporary postwar schools and housing for refugees “The Prouvé blend of avant-garde spirit and humanist concerns has lost none of its relevance,” the gallery said in a press release Prouvé relocated his workshop to Maxéville he produced this version of the 33-foot–by–38-foot demountable house as a model for postwar reconstruction “Intended as a demonstration model that would convince the public of the virtues of prefabricated housing this was a copybook model,” the gallery said “The use of the structural axial portal provides an open fluid plan rendered highly adaptable by interchangeable partitions and one-piece glazed or solid facing panels.” and the prototype was eventually set up in 1952 in Maxéville as the Ateliers Jean Prouvé Design Office Prouvé left the company the following year after a dispute with majority shareholder l’Aluminum Français and “the buildings bearing his stamp were demolished or demounted,” the gallery said the building served as the office of a plumber and a swingers’ club called Le Bounty before it was rescued by Seguin in 2015 Watch a time-lapse video of the structure taking shape below: Jean Prouvé Bureau d'études Maxéville Design Office, 1948 from Galerie Patrick Seguin on Vimeo Ateliers Jean Prouvé abandoned its outgrown workshops on Rue des Jardiniers for larger space in an industrial area on the northern edges of the city The need for expansion came hand in hand with a desire to take part in the national postwar reconstruction effort through the incorporation of a metal prefabrication enterprise Setting up a new factory in Maxéville did not mean breaking with the previous production structure but on the contrary was a continuation of a double experience undertaken in conjunction with Marcel Lods and Pierre Jeanneret Participation with Marcel Lods in the competition of the OTUA (Office Technique pour l’Utilisation de l’Acier) in 1939 and 1944 would provide Jean Prouvé with a framework for theoretical and programmatic reflection on metal’s application in construction through industrial production methods Because the house was an organism that was infinitely more complex than an industrial object (a car it was obligatory to channel operations towards fabricating serial houses before addressing the problem of collective housing The making of a prototype for industrialized housing required design studies manufacturing and montage of a kind that lay outside the rules and conventions of traditional building could only be solved by industrial production As for the collaboration with Pierre Jeanneret and the BCC (Bureau Central de Construction) which began in 1939 with the work done for the SCAL (Societé Centrale des Alliages Légers) it spanned the entire wartime period in a context of penury that permitted open experimentation with diverse solutions for technological adaptation with unusual materials (wood The solution corresponded to the availability of the materials Parallel to the technical problems to be solved Prouvé’s patient and painstaking research in search of an optimal individual dwelling led him to a reflection of an architectural nature and to the creation of a typology of floor plans and structural systems that would be partly materialized in the Métropole-type houses (1949) [+] there arent any match using your search terms The 2022 WSF World Junior Squash Championships begin today (August 11 2022) as young athletes from 37
