Jean Prouvé was an influential 20th century designer, architect and engineer who played a significant role in the development of systems for mass production in the post-war Modernist period. The 6x6 Demountable House exemplifies his belief in portability, simplicity, and practicality. His prefabricated homes were a quick and elegant solution to the housing crisis that emerged following World War II. Beyond the beauty of its form, this house puts the genius of its creator on display.
