The F 8×8 BCC house<\/a> designed by JEAN PROUV\u00c9<\/strong><\/a> and Pierre Jeanneret<\/a> follows in the footsteps of projects begun after 1939 based on the axial portal frame construction system designed by Prouv\u00e9 in 1939. Produced in only a handful of examples between 1941 and 1943, this pavilion demonstrated an \u201call-wood\u201d architecture. The fruit of a powerful complementarity, the project reflects the extraordinary adaptability of the two men. The constructor and the architect competed in ingenuity to create a lightweight, demountable architecture in extreme wartime conditions, using metal only for tie-rods, assembly pieces and hardware.<\/p>\n

Using the axial portal frame allowed Pierre Jeanneret<\/a> great freedom in the organization of the 68m2 internal space, destined for a five-person family. Drawing inspiration from various proposals studied with Le Corbusier<\/a> in the 1920s, Pierre Jeanneret designed a fluid living space suitable for family life, structured around a central hearth generated by the visible central portal frame.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
