LC1 Chair

The LC1 Lounge chair designed by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jean­neret, and Char­lotte Perriand for Cassina derives from an in-depth study of human posture. In this case, the Chair is intended to be relax­ing and foster conver­sa­tion. The balance between form and func­tion is achieved through the use of the Modulor, a system based on the typical measure­ments of the male body and a math­e­mat­i­cal language informed by the propor­tions of univer­sal harmony. The back­rest, attached to the frame by a rod that allows the angle of tilt to change, moves as you shift, offer­ing contin­u­ous support. The Chair’s compact size and comfort make it ideal for small spaces.

The LC1 chair was designed and presented at the 1929 Salon d’Au­tomne with other impor­tant models, such as the LC2 and LC3 armchairs, LC6 table, and LC4 chaise-longue. Each piece is signed, numbered, and includes a certifi­cate of authenticity.
