'Stem' for Cinna

The clean lines and basic forms of these tables and storage units appeared in 2007. Jourdan describes them as being 'Silent as a yacht's shell cutting water stem to stern'

Urban structure, Saint-Etienne station

Jourdan fans and connoisseurs will see in this fence-gate structure a logical follow-on to the designer's experiments in furniture-architecture, in particular the 'Traversants' set shown at the Peyroulet gallery in the year 2000: a series of free-standing partition pieces to mark separation in space as well as passage to another room.

It is a large openwork screen that fills two functions: channel and admit. Commenting on it, Jourdan says: 'The structure is there without being there: people have to be able to pass thru it and also feel its presence wherever they happen to be on the train station forecourt. There is also a reference to modernism in the definition of an open plan space, in the spirit of Mies van der Rohe'.
