About the Item

With prominent roles at the Société des artistes décorateurs (SAD), #AntoinePhilippon (1930-1995) and #JacquelineLecoq (b. 1932) are among the most influential figures of twentieth-century #Frenchdesign. The award-winning design and architecture duo met in 1954 and opened their independent studio the following year. Together, they established a prolific career participating annually in Salon des Art Ménagers and Salon des Artistes Décorateurs, while also taking local and international commissions, such as the “Pointe de Diamant” Sideboard and 1307 Series Cabinet commissioned by the German industrialist Erwin Behr upon his firm’s fiftieth anniversary in 1962. Following the generation of SAD dissidents that made up the Union des artistes modernes during the ‘30s and ‘40s, Philippon and Lecoq pioneered a functionalist design that embraced industrial materials like plywood, glass and steel and shunned ornamentation -all-the-while maintaining an undeniable commitment to artistic craftsmanship. Rather than making an outright denunciation of decoration, their experimental designs embraced luxury and sophistication by capitalizing on the elegance of the materials themselves. In doing so, they sidestepped the need for decoration altogether and were able to produce functional pieces true to the ethos of Modernity.
