Le mobilier design pour enfants

Alvar Aalto, Arne Jacobsen, Charles & Ray Eames and Jean Prouvé… all these renowned designers wanted to give children a world of their own, a place where they could explore and imagine new forms.
This unprecedented creativity in the field of children’s furniture reflects the growing importance accorded to children throughout the 20th century, both within the family and in the home.

This book explores this singular history, from the 1920s to the 1970s, and presents almost 50 pieces that are emblematic of this field of creation, where play and imagination often dictate new aesthetic languages that go beyond functional concerns.

This publication is a new edition of a work published in 2009.
