Ateliérs Jean Prouvé was originally designed in the early 1950s for the University of Cité in Anthony, France. The iconic work on the chair resembles the Compas Direction table, which comes in Prouvé’s signature red tone rouge tights, with powder-coated legs in a transverse tubular support system and a pair of metal stands to support the European pine seat.
