Paul Dupré Lafon was a French Art Deco designer and architect.

Called the ‘’decorator of millionaires’’, Paul Dupré Lafon created beautiful interiors for a wealthy and fashionable clientele.

 

Inspired by Cubism, he combined excellence in cabinet-making with innovative and geometric designs.

He privileged luxurious materials such as Macassar Ebony or Brazilian Rosewood .

Dupré Lafon mixed them with leather (mainly box-calf), limestone or chromed steel to create contrasting effects on his furniture.
