A perfect representative of the French decorative arts in the 20th century, Pierre Cruège (1913-2003) practised every profession: architect, interior designer, decorator, designer of ingenious systems, furniture designer and editor...

Over the course of his fifty-year career, Pierre Cruège drew boundless inspiration from a human experience in which innovation subtly blended with the know-how that had accumulated from ancient tradition to the most radical modernity.

Organised in three parts corresponding to the key stages of Cruège's career - the 1940s, the industrial years (1946-1965), then from the minimalism of the 1960s to the postmodernism of the 1980s - this monograph is both a study of Pierre Cruège's career and a tribute by the author, his daughter, to the man he was. The book brings together a wealth of original and previously unpublished archive material, and bears witness to the effervescent life of this key twentieth-century creator.
