Artists in conversation

Jean Prouvé
French · b. 1901

Prouvé created mid-century modernist furniture and seating designs that share Perriand's emphasis on functional form, honest materials, and structural elegance. His stools and chairs reflect the same French modernist sensibility seen in the Berger stools.

Pierre Jeanneret
Swiss · b. 1896

Jeanneret collaborated closely with Perriand and Le Corbusier producing iconic modernist seating that prioritizes clean geometric forms and utilitarian beauty. His furniture designs share the same mid-century modernist vocabulary as the Berger stools.

Isamu Noguchi
American · b. 1904

Noguchi designed sculptural modernist furniture including stools and seating that balance artistic form with functional purpose in a manner closely aligned with Perriand's approach. His work shares the same refined mid-century modernist aesthetic and material thoughtfulness.
