Le Corbusier

In Paris, in 1929, there were some new concepts of furniture on display at the Salon d'Automne. They had been designed by Charles-Edouard Jeanneret, better known as Le Corbusier, pierre Jeanneret, and a young woman called Charlotte Perriand.

This furniture has not dated in the slightest, and even today fits perfectly with the modern home. This is mainly due to Le Corbusier's conviction that the binomial shape/function value must be expressed in the three dimensional manifestation of any daily used and useful object.

Cassina's production of Le Corbusier's designs is protected by a rights license drawn up in 1964, when the Master was still alive, granted by the Fondation Le Corbusier and the co-authors.
