The probably most famous design armchair ever still convinces with its elegant look. The cubic seat, originally designed by architectural legend Le Corbusier in collaboration with designer Charlotte Perriand and his cousin Pierre Jeanneret for the Paris Autumn Salon in 1927, is considered a Bauhaus classic par excellence. With its voluminous leather upholstery, the iconic tubular steel chair offers incomparable seating comfort.

Formerly known as LC2, the design chair was renamed in 2022 by the manufacturer Cassina to also honour the collaboration of other designers* on the classic series.

Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand

Born in 1887, the Swiss-French architect, artist and furniture designer is considered one of the most influential architects of the 20th century. In 1922, Le Corbusier began working with Pierre Jeanneret in their studio in Rue de Sèvres in Paris, and five years later, the aspiring architect Charlotte Perriand also joined them. Together with Corbusier's cousin Pierre Jeanneret, they dedicated themselves to the innovative project "l'équipement d'intérieur de l'habitation". Especially in the field of furniture design, this collaboration proved to be very successful. Today, the designer furniture is produced by Cassina. They continue to impress with their timeless design and enjoy unbroken popularity
