Robert Mallet-Stevens was a pioneering modernist who designed architecture, interiors, film sets and furniture. He is considered one of the most influential French architects of the first half of the last century—for many, slightly below Le Corbusier. His relative obscurity is due in part to the poor timing of his death. As a 2005 Domus article pointed out, Mallet-Stevens diedjust before major postwar construction began to take place, not in time to leave behind a theoretical work to assure his place in the archives.In addition, his focus was less universal than Le Corbusier's. Mallet-Stevens was personally involved in all manner of architectural detail. Because of this multifaceted involvement, he created design and architecture of nuanced chicness. His work did not jettison the richness of the Vienna Succession and the Wiener Werkstätte—but Mallet-Stevens had one foot aimed directly at the super-reductionist future of full-blown modernism.Extract of Design File 013: Robert Mallet-StevensBy Matthew Sullivan - May 27, 2014 in Design Files from Core77.com
