About the Item
Alain Richard (1926 - 2017) is a famous French designer who quickly established himself as one of the most brilliant representatives of his generation. After graduating from the École nationale des arts décoratifs in 1949, he joined the agency of René Gabriel, his former teacher, before going into exile in the Netherlands when Gabriel died. The young designer then worked with Hein Salomonson's firm before setting up his own design office in Paris in 1952 with his wife Jacqueline Iribe, a designer of furnishing textiles. With a rigorous functionalism, his first pieces of furniture were first published by Lavrilleux and Charron, then by Meubles TV, where Alain Richard worked and signed several designs with André Monpoix. Together they designed the Banquette 195 (1954). A success among others rewarded by the Milan Triennial Prize in 1954 and, ten years later, by the René Gabriel Prize. Alain Richard's talented career continued in the 1970s with frequent commissions from the Mobilier National, the design of numerous museums, as well as projects for large hotel groups, winter sports resorts and the BNP, which entrusted him with the design of numerous prestigious branches throughout the world. At the end of his career he devoted himself to teaching.
