Advocating for an intimate understanding of living environments, she emphasized the importance of personal immersion in a space before beginning the design process. As expressed in her writings, including her autobiography, "Charlotte Perriand: A Life of Creation.". Perriand valued solitude and direct engagement with a site, feeling a deep connection to the places she worked with or visited, regardless of their state.
