The architect Pierre Guariche was one of the leading designers of modern furniture and lighting in post-war France.
Pierre Guariche can, in some ways, be considered the French version of Charles Eames (American Designer) with his clean, angular chairs and slender, sculptural table lamps.
He helped introduce a new aesthetic to the country's interiors and was an enthusiastic pioneer in the use of the new industrial materials and production techniques that emerged in the 1950s.
After 1957, when Pierrre Guariche was appointed design director of the Belgian company Meuro and tasked with creating elegant, modern chairs and cabinets, he began to look to America for ideas.
In the mid-1960s, Guariche produced several lines of rounded, deeply upholstered lounge chairs inspired by the space age style, and gave them names like Jupiter, Polaris and Luna.
While Pierre Guariche has always been in tune with the times, throughout his career he has shown a consistent talent for producing elegant and eye-catching shapes using a minimum of materials.
