Mallet-Stevens studied architecture at the École Spéciale d'Architecture in Paris and began his career as an interior designer for Parisian department stores such as Le Bon Marché and Galeries Lafayette. In 1922, he opened his own architecture and design practice and began designing houses, apartment blocks and public buildings. Mallet-Stevens's style was characterized by simple geometric forms, clean lines and modern materials such as steel, glass and reinforced concrete. His most famous projects include the Villa Noailles in Hyères, the Esprit Nouveau pavilion at the 1925 Paris Exposition des Arts Décoratifs, and the Maison Martel in Ville-d'Avray. In addition to his work as an architect, Mallet-Stevens also designed furniture and interior objects. His creations were often characterized by geometric simplicity and functionality, and influenced the development of modern design in France. Although his career was interrupted by the Second World War, Mallet-Stevens's legacy as a pioneer of the modern movement in France continues to be celebrated today.
