About Charlotte Perriand (1903-1999): She was born in Paris in 1903 and attended the Ecole de l’Union Centrale des Arts Décoratifs from 1920-1925. In 1937 Charlotte Perriand and Pierre Jeanneret collaborated on designing a mountain chalet of sheet aluminium, which they showed at the “Exposition Internationale des Arts et Techniques dans la Vie Moderne”. In 1940 Charlotte Perriand became a design consultant to the Japanese Board of Trade.
