The French sculptor, architect and editor André Bloc designed the model of this distinctly sculptural desk for his villa-atelier in Meudon, France. The Villa Bellevue and its garden were also designed by Bloc and bear the mark of his interdisciplinary approach to design. Built in concrete and glass, with colourful interiors and impressive outdoor sculptures, the villa and the present model desk were featured in the June 1953 issue of the French cultural review Plaisir de France. The publication describes how ‘through large windows the light floods the interior with light and the garden seeps in from all sides.’
After starting his career as an engineer in motor and turbine factories, Bloc’s artistic practice was influenced by his early 1920s encounters with architects such as Le Corbusier and August Perret, which shifted his work towards having an evident architectural quality. In 1930, he founded the influential review L'Architecure d'Aujourd'hui and later formed the ‘Groupe Espace’, a collection of artists and designers including Jean Prouvé and Sonia Delaunay who advocated the synthesis of art with architecture.
