本书对让•普鲁韦的预制房屋及其影响进行了深入的研究，并在阿勒斯的一个大型展览上展出。

这本迷人的书，伴随着阿勒斯的LUMA基金会的重大回顾展，聚焦于让•普鲁韦设计的12个预制房屋，每一个都是为这次展览而特别重建的。最初作为一名金属工人接受培训，让•普鲁韦认为自己是一名工程师和建筑工人，而不是一名设计师或建筑师。在他的广泛作品中，从照明到家具，展览结构到书架，他的模块化建筑尤其引人入胜。成就他作品的是那些随笔，以及归档的当代图像、绘画和手写笔记，同时以及在Arles上安装的12所房子的图片组合。

让•普鲁韦是一位法国金属工人、自学成才的建筑师和设计师，现在被认为是早期现代主义运动中最具影响力的设计师之一。在他的成就中，他因使用以前**于工业制造的技术而备受尊崇。

"Prouvé has been a major influence on me and a pioneer in linking the process of construction to the language of modern architecture." ―Richard Rogers

This fascinating book, which accompanies a major retrospective at the LUMA Foundation in Arles, focuses on twelve prefabricated houses designed by Prouvé, each of which has been specially rebuilt for the exhibition. Originally trained as a metal worker, Jean Prouvé regarded himself as an engineer and constructor rather than a designer or architect. Among his broad output, which ranges from lighting to furniture, exhibition structures to shelving, his modular buildings are particularly intriguing. Essays setting his work in context are accompanied by archival and contemporary images, drawings, and handwritten notes, together with a portfolio of images of the twelve houses as installed in Arles.

Jean Prouvé was a French metal worker, self-taught architect, and designer, now regarded as one of the most influential designers of the early modernist movement. Among his achievements, he is revered for using technology previously limited to industrial manufacturing within his elegant architecture.
