Armchair designed by Le Corbusier back in 1928 and currently produced by Cassina.
The project has seen the collaboration of two other designers, Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand.
One of the models that has made and continues to make design history even today. The LC2 is timeless and, despite the fact that almost a century has passed since its birth, its shape is extremely current. Even back then, one of the main focuses of the master was the comfort of the body: the armchair was not only based on an aesthetic principle, but also on rigorous ergonomic research. Initially the rights for the production of this chair were acquired by the Thonet company, starting in 1930. Then in 1959 a second edition was launched by a gallery owner in Zurich, and finally in 1964 Cassina acquired the rights to produce the piece. The structure is classic of those years: tubular steel as the frame and leather or fabric upholstery that guarantees elegance and embellishes the product at the same time. And, in addition to the comfort of the armchair itself, obviously the honor of being seated on a piece by the great Le Corbusier comes into play.
