In France, after the Second World War and until the early 1960s, a strong mobilization was necessary to rebuild infrastructure and homes. This situation called Reconstruction allowed the emergence of a new generation of architects and designers. First for the disaster victims (Jean Prouvé’s 8×8 demountable house for disaster victims, etc.) with the advent of emergency furniture (René Gabriel, etc.) marking a return to simplicity and functionality.
This piece of furniture from the Reconstruction period is one of the ambassadors of a key moment: Domestic Utopia, whose guiding principle is to rebuild an ideal, functional and accessible living environment. This translates into more practical interiors and, as can be seen in this Raclem desk, modular furniture and optimized spaces, reflecting a desire for modernity and renewal.
