Jean-Pierre Garrault & Henri Delord

In the 1970s, Jean-Pierre Garrault and Henri Delord formed an incredibly close-knit creative duo. Originally graphic designers, with a penchant for lines that emphasized architecture or objects, and a predilection for bright colors that permeated most of their works. Their primary goal was to create objects perfectly suited to their function, a mission they carried out in every aspect of home design – from furniture to roofing, from lighting to interior design. They also achieved this goal through a review of the means of production, adapting them to the themes they wished to deal with. For them, this represented the true heart of design: conceiving each element to obtain a flawless, elegant, balanced and iconic finished product.
