Fabien Vienne was born in Paris in 1925. At the age of 20, he experienced the period of France's liberation from German occupation, which had an impact on his worldview. It was during this period that Vienne discovered the [[Modernism|Modern Movement]] and its French precursors. He joined Le Corbusier's former collaborator Jean Bossu in the monumental task of rebuilding a war-ravaged country. Through his studies with architects such as Lods, Hermant and Nelson, Vienne had the opportunity to meet such names as [[Le Corbusier]], [[Jean Prouvé]], Perriand, Perret, Hanning and Miquel, among others.

Fabien Vienne (18 February 1925 - 31 March 2016) was a French architect, urban planner, and designer known for his atypical career path and wide-ranging versatility. Born in Paris, Vienne initially pursued a technical education and graduated from the École des Arts-Appliqués. Throughout his career, he has contributed to furniture design, urban planning, construction systems, original architectural projects and scenography design.[1][2]
Early life and influences
Fabien Vienne was born in Paris in 1925. At the age of 20, he experienced the period of France's liberation from German occupation, which had an impact on his worldview. It was during this period that Vienne discovered the Modern Movement and its French precursors. He joined Le Corbusier's former collaborator Jean Bossu in the monumental task of rebuilding a war-ravaged country. Through his studies with architects such as Lods, Hermant and Nelson, Vienne had the opportunity to meet such names as Le Corbusier, Jean Prouvé, Perriand, Perret, Hanning and Miquel, among others. These encounters and experiences played a role in shaping Vienne's architectural journey.[3]
Career development
In the early 1950s, Vienne was moved to Réunion, a French overseas territory in the Indian Ocean. There he inspected Jean Bossu's construction sites and established a local office. This experience abroad left an impression on Vienne, and upon his return to the French continent he founded his own firm, SOAA (Société d'Organization d'Architectes Associés). The company, which is still operating today, reflects Vienne's vision of existence and human relations.[4]
Vienne's approach
Fabien Vienne's departure stood out as unusual in France at the time. Although he did not graduate in architecture until 1977, he managed to carve out a path for himself. Unlike many architects who focused on subsidized housing during a period of rapid economic growth, Vienne received commissions primarily from private developers, mostly construction contractors. This allowed him to explore alternative paths and demonstrate a sense of adaptability and invention.[4]
One of Vienne's achievements is the development of the EXN construction system. This versatile and cost-effective system was used to build hundreds of wooden houses in La Réunion and continues to be used today. Vienne's capabilities were revealed through previous research and construction projects, such as the Trigone system (1968) used in resorts such as Vald'Yerre (1971).[5]
Vienne's capacity for adaptation is evident not only in the various scales he has tackled throughout his career, from small everyday objects to city plans, but also in the diverse projects he has undertaken. These include houses, schools, office buildings, factories, universities, apartment complexes, hotels and health centers. Vienne's architectural solutions are known for their suitability and purposeful approach.[6]
Philosophy and legacy
Geometry and the principle of economy are two fundamental concepts that underpin Fabien Vienne's work. For him, geometry is not just a compositional tool but an epistemology — a way to understand and express the underlying laws of the world. The principle of economy goes beyond mere accounting in the art of building; it is about finding the essence of a problem and substantiating it in a solution that brings that essence to light and life.[7]
Fabien Vienne's contributions to architecture, urbanism and design have left a mark on the industry. Vienne has contributed to the built environment with its approach and projects and has been a source of inspiration for future generations of architects and designers.[8]
