Шаблон:Infobox person Charles Plumet (17 May 1861 – 15 April 1928) was a French architect, decorator and ceramist.

Life

Charles Plumet was born in 1861. He became an architect and designed buildings in medieval and early French Renaissance styles. He collaborated with Tony Selmersheim (1871–1971) on interiors and furniture design in Art Nouveau forms.Шаблон:Sfn Charles Plumet became a member of l’Art dans Tout (Art in Everything), an association of architects, painters and sculptors that was actively trying to renew decorative art between 1896 and 1901, following styles from adapted medieval to Art Nouveau. Other members were Tony Selmersheim, Henri Sauvage, Henri Nocq, Alexandre Charpentier, Félix Aubert, Jean Dampt and then Étienne Moreau-Nélaton.Шаблон:Sfn

Plumet was committed to functionalism and against the academic approach of the École des Beaux-Arts. In 1902 he expressed the principle that "forms derive from needs". In 1907 he published two articles on regional architecture in L'Art et les artistes in which he said architecture should be united with the landscape. He wrote an article that praised Louis Bonnier (1856-1946), who he thought had carefully adapted forms to contexts and needs, but he rejected architecture that imitated the landscape. He said architecture should "develop in its setting like a flower or plant."Шаблон:Sfn However, he gave the functionalist view that designers should add elements such as balconies, terraces, porches or gables "as context suggested" to express "the dweller's needs with regard to the climate, the orientation and the view."Шаблон:Sfn

By the start of the 20th century the partnership of Selmersheim and Plumet had become the leading Art Nouveau company in Paris. They tried to combine British and Belgian design innovations with French taste. The results could be graceful.Шаблон:Sfn Plumet's façades often included polychrome materials, bay windows and galleries open on one side.Шаблон:Sfn However, the buildings were not particularly innovative apart from the addition of curvilinear ornamentation, which was unusual at the time.Шаблон:Sfn Gustave Soulier considered Plumet and Selmersheim were truly innovative in their furniture designs, which combined workmanship, elegance and functionality.Шаблон:Sfn

In 1908 Frantz Jourdain was president of the Salon d'automne, Plumet was vice-president and Henri Sauvage was sectional president for architecture. These three were visited in turn by Charles-Edouard Jeanneret, later known as Le Corbusier, who was looking for work. None of them could offer anything significant.Шаблон:Sfn Plumet was chief architect of the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs, Paris (1925).Шаблон:Sfn

Charles Plumet died in 1928.Шаблон:Sfn

Sample buildings

Plumet was the architect of many apartment blocks and hôtels particuliers in the 16th arrondissement of Paris.Шаблон:Sfn Examples of his expensive residential buildings in Paris are 67 Avenue de Raymond-Poincaré (1895), 50 Avenue Victor Hugo (1900–1), and 15 and 21 Boulevard Lannes (1906).Шаблон:Sfn The house on Avenue de Raymond-Poincaré, completed in 1898, was the first major work by Plumet and Selmersheim. It had a simple rectilinear form with very restrained use of Belgian-style decoration, and seems to be derived from Renaissance revival.Шаблон:Sfn A contemporary praised the building on Boulevard Lannes for "the play of solids and voids, the undulations of the facades in agreement with the layout of the apartments.Шаблон:Sfn Other buildings include the Château de Chênemoireau, Loire-et-Cher (1901), and an office block at 33 Rue du Louvre, Paris (1913–14).Шаблон:Sfn

Plumet was charged with designing the outside entrances to the Pelleport, Saint-Fargeau, and Porte des Lilas stations on the Paris Métro Line 3bis, which was finally completed in December 1920. Plumet designed the stations so the elevators are accessible directly from the surface. The three stations are made of reinforced concrete and ciment de Grenoble; they are decorated with ceramics made by Gentil & Bourdet.Шаблон:Sfn The stations are accessible only by the elevators.Шаблон:Sfn Plumet designed four towers for the 1925 exhibition, each with a regional restaurant from which the diners could look out over the city.Шаблон:Sfn He also designed the crafts palace.Шаблон:Sfn
