Enter the world of Charlotte Perriand, one of the giants of 20th-century design ahead of the blockbuster exhibition at the Design Museum. In this exclusive International Women’s Day event, get to know Perriand as a free spirit who championed good design for all and embrace her design philosophy as a pioneer of the modern world.
Join inspirational women from around the world for a first-look at the exhibition trailer, followed by a private masterclass hosted by artist and stage designer Es Devlin.

The Design Museum’s exhibition Charlotte Perriand: The Modern Life will open 19 June 2021.
Enjoy a 25 minute workshop exploring the art of collaboration and design through observation of natural forms. The class is inspired by the spirit of Charlotte Perriand as embodied in this powerful photograph, of which Perriand’s daughter wrote:
“That photograph of a strong woman, triumphantly embracing nature, is the perfect image of my mother. She announces the contemporary woman, emancipated and free.”
