Perriand (1903-1999), one of the most influential designers of the 20th century, was born in Paris and trained at the École de l'Union Centrale des Arts Décoratifs. Throughout her career, Perriand collaborated with renowned figures such as Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret, pushing the boundaries of design with her pioneering work in tubular steel and anodized aluminum. Her contributions to modern furniture design were revolutionary, helping define the principles of functionalism and minimalism.
