Circa 1950, France

Louis Sognot [1892-1970] was a French designer best known for his elegant furniture made from a combination of rattan and wood. Sognot was influenced by Art Deco and Cubist aesthetics, giving his work a unique stylistic flair while also being usable.

Born on May 25, 1892 in Paris, France, Sognot studied at the École Bernard-Pablissy before working as a designer at the Au Printemps department store in Paris in 1919.

The designer went on to become a founding member of the Union des Artistes Decoroteurs.

He died in 1970 in Paris, France.
