Past Present Future: Courrèges and Moreau
Chez Jean Moureau with its Le Corbusier lounge
The sound of power saws and drills filling the house these days, with one DIY project followed by another, silenced, at least in my head, when I spotted these interior shots of the futuristic homes of fashion designer Andre Courrèges and actress-director Jeanne Moreau, circa late 1960s, early 1970s. These images of the French stylephiles appear in an extended "Back in Time" album of archival pics at WWD. There's obviously such a treasure trove in the photo archives of my former employer, it's crazy there isn't a book or three.
Crazier, still, is that more homes--middle-class homes--don't look like these, like the future.
André Courrèges spare, forward aesthetic at home as in his fashion.
