Biography

Jean Rene Julien Dubuisson was born with Lille (Northern) the September 18th 1914. He is the son of the architect Emile Dubuisson (1873 - 1947) and the father of the Designer Sylvain Dubuisson (born in 1946).

Following its studies with the 3Ecole Nationale Sup3erieure of the fine arts, it is graduate in 1939 and prize winner of Large the Prix of Rome in 1945. It remains with Rome then with Athens of 1946 to 1949. It wishes very quickly, with its return in France, to imply itself in the adventure of the rebuilding (after the massive destruction of the Second world war).

Its participation in the contest of Strasbourg in 1951 to work out new typologies (gained by Eugene Beaudouin), enables him to find its place within some architects appointed by the State to build the whole of residences.

Beside a traditional culture acquired with the School of the Art schools of Paris and with the Villa Médicis, it is influenced by the architects Mies van der Rohe, Jacobsen or Gropius. Its many projects of residences are marked by the search for a personal language to be abstracted from the Draconian constraints and vastness of the programs of the time. It built with him only 20.000 social housing.

There remains one of the large representatives of the French architecture of “the thirty glorious ones” with its great units of residences: Shape Village with Saint-Germain-in-Bush hammer (1951 - 1952), the Caravel with Villeneuve-the-Garenne (1959 - 1967) or those of Montparnasse to Paris (1959 - 1964), but also the Museum of arts and traditions popular in Paris.

It obtained the national Grand Prix of architecture in 1996.
