Charlotte Perriand鈥檚 manifesto 鈥淲ood or Metal鈥 was first published April 1929 in The Studio (no.441, pp.278-79). In its original form the text included a selection of words that were intentionally capitalized. Perriand presented Le Bar sous le toit (the bar under the stars) to the public in the context of the Autumn Salon of 1927. The set up emulated her own apartment鈥檚 hallway located at Place Saint Sulpice. Its low roof, typical element for a Parisian apartment at the time, enclosed a corner equipped with a curved bar counter. A large square window served as dividing point between two slabs protruding from the wall surface. Stools, a couch and a low table positioned on the opposite side of the bar completed a meeting space within this domestic environment. The bar had a bright metal finish and was made of steel. The leather armchairs were made with leather in pink and blue hues, giving a rather industrial feeling to the space, moving further away from the conventional context of a residential interior. In 1962 Stanley Brouwn wrote about the end of art and science in a future (4000 a.d.) which will see music, theater, art, displaced.
