Charlotte Perriand: Prefabricated Kitchen From Les Arcs 1800, France 1979

A museum piece, this kitchen block by Charlotte Perriand, designed to equip the apartments of the Arcs 1800 ski resort, a project to which she devoted nearly 20 years of her life.

The prefabricated kitchen is designed to be connected directly on site. It has lighting, four hotplates, space for a dishwasher and a small refrigerator. It is made up of a polyester shell reinforced with fiberglass and stainless steel.

Exhibited at the Center Pompidou in Paris, it was also visible during the exhibition at the Vuitton Foundation in 2019 "The New World of Charlotte Perriand".
