Charles Plumet

He wrote an article that praised Louis Bonnier (1856-1946), who he thought had carefully adapted forms to contexts and needs, but he rejected architecture that imitated the landscape.

"[4] By the start of the 20th century the partnership of Selmersheim and Plumet had become the leading Art Nouveau company in Paris.

[5] Plumet's façades often included polychrome materials, bay windows and galleries open on one side.

[6] Gustave Soulier considered Plumet and Selmersheim were truly innovative in their furniture designs, which combined workmanship, elegance and functionality.

[5] A contemporary praised the building on Boulevard Lannes for "the play of solids and voids, the undulations of the facades in agreement with the layout of the apartments.

[10] Other buildings include the Château de Chênemoireau, Loire-et-Cher (1901), and an office block at 33 Rue du Louvre, Paris (1913–14).

[1] Plumet was charged with designing the outside entrances to the Pelleport, Saint-Fargeau, and Porte des Lilas stations on the Paris Métro Line 3bis, which was finally completed in December 1920.
