France (1925-2013)

Joseph-André Motte studied at the university of GAP and then applied the Ecole des Arts Appliqués where he finished valedictorian. He founds the Atelier of plastic research with his colleagues Michel Mortier and Pierre Guariche. Joseph-André Motte is without doubt one of the greatest designer of the French elegance.
