About the Item

An aluminum and ash wood chair designed by George Candilis and Finnish interior designer Anja Blomstedt for the Carrats holiday village, which spans nearly five hectares on the beach at the western end of Port-Leucate, designed by architects Georges Candilis (1913-1995), Georges Wursteisen, Pierre Raoux, and Zygmund Knyszewsky.. For the Candilis team, the Carrats operation becomes a place of architectural experimentation with a social dimension. Composed of cubic-shaped bungalows, its roof terraces, its patios, collective buildings, the numerous public places (small squares, play areas) allowed the creation of an ideal place where everything was done to tend towards individual and collective happiness. Candilis and Blomstedt had an idea of cheap and very simple furniture that are easy to disassemble and transport, consisting of simple pieces of solid wood or plywood held in place with aluminium angle brackets. The pieces were made and assembled by the Sentou workshops, and only a few hundred pieces of this rare edition remain nowadays. PUBLICATION: hicarquitectura com Georges Candilis Les Carrats 1969
