Library-secretary Designed By Sornay Circa 1950
Artist: André Sornay
In the effervescence of post-war design, André Sornay established himself as a key figure in modernist furniture. Faced with the need for functional and accessible housing, he developed a patented process, that of "tigettes", which allowed for precise assembly of wooden panels while reducing production costs.
Coming from the Lyon design movement, he designed furniture designed to adapt to contemporary living spaces, with sober lines and efficient modularity. This model, designed by André Sornay, is part of this logic of economical post-war furniture, where practicality and aesthetics go hand in hand. Today, his creations bear witness to an era of renewal in interior design, while remaining relevant for those looking for a design that is both rational and timeless.
