Adnet furniture embodies both tradition and modernity. The curves are sober and the materials robust. For him, each piece had to be designed independently of its future place in an interior. The "Club armchair" and the "Wall mirror" are timeless mythical pieces. Jacques Adnet was born in France in 1900. He studied at the Ecole Municipale de Design d'Auxerre, then at the Ecole des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. Until the age of 28, he worked with his twin brother, both of whom were quickly noticed at the Salon d'Automne and the Exposition des Arts Décoratifs. The Adnet brothers are considered promising young talents. He went on to direct the Compagnie des Arts Français (1928-1960), the Salon des Artistes Décorateurs (1947-1949) and the Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs (1959-1970). He was one of the first designers to integrate glass and metal into his work. His aim was to design furniture that was both aesthetically pleasing and functional. An avant-gardist, he left his mark on twentieth-century design with his innovative vision.
