Pierre Paulin by Elisabeth Vedrenne (English) Paperback Book

Description: Pierre Paulin by Elisabeth Vedrenne, Pierre Paulin, Anne Marie Fevre The popularity enjoyed today by the French furniture designer Pierre Paulin traces its roots back to the Pop era, when Paulin incarnated the Pop aesthetic perfectly in his unique and revolutionary chairs.
