"Maison tropicale" Jean Prouvé 1953, "Kanal - Centre Pompidou", ancien garage Citroën-Yser, quai des Péniches, Bruxelles, Belgium

La Maison tropicale, dont les concrétisations en Afrique se limitent à la seule fonction de construction témoin, est un symbole de la production industrielle contrariée de Jean Prouvé et de la maturation continue de sa pensée sur la standardisation et la préfabrication. Métal contre métal, un dialogue s’établit entre la Maison tropicale et la structure de l’atelier.

 

The Tropical House, whose concretizations in Africa are limited to the sole function of control construction, is a symbol of Jean Prouvé's thwarted industrial production and the continuous maturation of his thought on standardization and prefabrication. Metal against metal, a dialogue is established between the Tropical House and the structure of the workshop.
