Fernand Pouillon (14 May 1912 – 24 July 1986) was a French architect, urban planner, building contractor and writer. Pouillon was one of the most active and influential post-World War II architects and builders in France. He is remembered for his use of ‘noble’ building materials like stone, his integration of all phases of the building process, his inexpensive and efficient building techniques and his harmonious juxtaposition of forms. He was a humanist, as well as an architect.:6 His stated goal was to meet human needs, and especially, those of middle-class and poorer families who faced severe shortages of adequate housing in the post-War period.:16 Due to his success and personality, he attracted the jealousy and ill-will of many. His life included time in and escape from prison. Some architectural critics have speculated that he will be remembered as one of the great French architects of the 20th century. In 2025, Bloomberg News showcased Pouillon's architectural work, especially the post-World War II housing estates in the Old Port of Marseille, where the historic urban fabric had been destroyed. Bloomberg News summarizes Pouillon as "an architect, painter, communist, novelist and convicted fraudster".
