LC3 Grande Confort Outdoor

The LC3 Grande Confort marked the sepa­ra­tion of the metal frame from the uphol­stery, reflect­ing Modernist archi­tec­ture theory, where the support load-bearing struc­ture of the build­ing was sepa­rated from the rest. In this case, four discrete cush­ions are set inside a cage of painted or chrome-finished steel tubes. The same device is adopted for all the other pieces in the collec­tion, from the armchair with an arm-rest on one side only or on both to the two- or three-seater sofa. Over a period of many years, Cassina worked closely with Char­lotte Perriand, her heir, and the Fonda­tion Le Corbusier rein­ter­pret­ing the orig­i­nal design while respect­ing its orig­i­nal intent to bring new versions and finishes of this furni­ture to market. The LC3 Outdoor version is an exem­plar of this, crafted from a stain­less steel frame and finished in a special textured paint avail­able in five colors. The cush­ions are covered in water-repel­lent canvas to ensure maximum dura­bil­ity and reli­a­bil­ity in all weathers.
