Pierre Chapo: A Visionary Designer (1927–1987)
Born into a family of craftsmen, Pierre Chapo studied architecture at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris. His passion for exploration led him to travel through England, Scandinavia, and the Americas, where he was captivated by architectural diversity.
In 1957, Chapo and his wife Nicole founded Société Chapo, a workshop and gallery showcasing his designs alongside Nicole’s ceramics and textiles. Their renowned gallery at 14 Boulevard de l’Hôpital opened in 1958, where among other artists mainly his and Isamu Noguchi’s creations were on display.
Chapo’s designs, rooted in traditional craftsmanship, drew inspiration from Frank Lloyd Wright, Le Corbusier, and Bauhaus principles. Guided by the golden ratio, he emphasized material, form, and function, with elmwood as his preferred medium. Despite falling ill later in life, Chapo continued creating until his passing in 1987, leaving a timeless legacy in design.

Pierre Chapo
Pierre Chapo, who was born in Paris, France, in July 1927, was initially interested in becoming a professional painter. However, after a chance meeting with a shipbuilder who introduced him to wood and woodworking, Chapo changed his focus and decided to study architectural studies at the prestigious École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris.
After graduating, Chapo and his wife, the sculptor and painter Nicole Lormier, started traveling extensively through Scandinavia and Central America. Among the many places the couple visited was Taliesin West, the home and studio of Frank Lloyd Wright — a visit that had a lasting influence on Chapo’s future work and designs.
