This book is devoted to the French designers Antoine Philippon (1930-1995) and Jacqueline Lecoq (1932- ). Inspired by the teachings of the modernist masters of the Union des Artistes Modernes (U.A.M.), their goal was to bring harmony and comfort to interiors, employing modern materials and techniques, to improve the daily life of French citizens in the challenging post-war climate.

Philippon and Lecoq's furniture combines minimalism with a pervasive sense of architectural refinement and elegance. The couple succeeded in creating an extremely efficient environment which was still comfortable. They received numerous prestigious awards during their career including the 'Rene Gabriel' prize in 1961.
