Jean Prouve was an architect, engineer, and designer, credited with transferring manufacturing technology from industry to architecture without losing the aesthetic qualities. Prouve played a crucial role in developing construction techniques using lightweight prefabricated parts, many of which came from the aero and automatic industries. Described by Le Corbusier as combining "the soul of an engineer with that of an architect," Prouve played a crucial role in the development of today's modern furniture and design.
