I learned about Perriand several years ago and have modeled a dozen or so of her furniture pieces. Here's a selection:
The "Nuage' modular shelving system in the rear, with a wood-and-bamboo version of her famed chaise longue at the left. In the center, a low coffee table or bench, and at the right, a bentwood lounge chair.
Enjoy.
