The return to tradition, promoted by André Arbus (1903-1969) in his article on furniture, opened up a new path in 1935 between the traditional cabinetmaking advocated by Ruhlmann and the standardised "equipment" of Le Corbusier.
In the immediate post-war period, he was the official supplier of the Mobilier National, creating furniture, carpets and lighting for the Élysée Palace, the Château de Rambouillet, ministries and embassies. He designed prestigious liners, the "French Family House" at the 1937 Exhibition, farmhouses in the Crau region and maritime monuments such as the Planier lighthouse. From the 1950s onwards, he devoted himself to sculpture, opening up his masterful classicism to a moving vision of man.
This very complete monograph retraces the life and work of the decorator.
