About the Item

Mobilier d'urgence type v.150 by Rene Gabriel The 'Mobilier d'urgence type v.150' is a cabinet designed by French designer René Gabriel, part of a series of emergency furniture created as part of the reconstruction programme for the WWII-affected city of Le Havre. The model name is 'type v.150'. René Gabriel was a decorative artist and designer born in Maison Alfort, Paris, who designed the Chambre de Jeune Fille for the International Exhibition of Modern Industrial and Decorative Arts in 1925 for the International Ambassade de Française. He also devoted himself to designing wallpaper with block prints of flowers, landscapes and abstract paintings, and after the Second World War, Auguste Perret commissioned him to design furniture for Le Havre, where he became a major influence. René Gabriel had a logical and sophisticated style that inspired many new designers. In his honour, the René Gabriel Prize, dedicated to modern design, was created in 1951, and has been awarded to a number of well-known designers. Country / France Date / 1950s.
