Compas Direction

Jean Prouvé, 1953

The slender, elegantly splayed legs of Compas Direction, designed by Jean Prouvé in 1953, call to mind the hinged arms of a compass – 'le compas' in French. With its compact dimensions, the desk is ideal for the contemporary home office.

Jean Prouvé, who regarded himself as an engineer throughout his lifetime, was both the designer and manufacturer of his product ideas. His unique oeuvre, ranging from a letter opener to door and window fittings, from lighting and furniture to prefabricated houses and modular building systems, encompasses almost anything that is suited to industrial production and construction.
