In the summer of 1946, shortly after the end of World War II, Jean and Madeleine Prouv\u00e9 set up an 8×8 Demountable House in Carnac<\/a><\/span>, Brittany, intended both as a holiday home for their large family and as a demonstration model for prefabricated housing. Shipped in several parts by train, the pavilion was based on Prouv\u00e9\u2019<\/a><\/span>s axial portal frame system, patented in 1939, combining lightweight metal components with standardized wooden elements assembled on site. Featuring steel-clad fa\u00e7ade panels and windows, the house became one of the first and most significant postwar examples of JEAN PROUV\u00c9<\/a><\/strong>\u2019s vision for lightweight, industrialized and adaptable architecture. <\/span><\/p>\n

This new publication brings together a wide selection of archival documents and period photographs dedicated to the Carnac Demountable House<\/a>. Through this volume, the 16th in the series, GALERIE PATRICK SEGUIN<\/a><\/strong> <\/strong>continues its research and documentation work on Jean Prouv\u00e9\u2019s demountable architecture, its historical significance, and its contemporary relevance. <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
