French Design from the 60s and 70s

Daniella Ohad is a NY-based design historian who we met briefly at Design Miami last December. She graciously included us on a tour she was giving to some of her students that highlighted her favorite design pieces at the fair. She teaches a course each year on Collecting Design at the NY School of Interior Design.  This fall she has added a session about French design of the 60s and 70s, which will focus on collecting furniture by Gabriella Crespi, Maria Pergay, Pierre Paulin, and Claude and François-Xavier Lalanne. We have written several posts on the work of these designers and encourage you to explore them (links below) and learn about them.  And check out Daniella’s class!
