LC 1 Sling Chair
Designed in 1928 and produced exclusively by Cassina, the LC1 is one of the defining objects of the modern movement. Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand conceived it not as furniture in the decorative sense, but as a functional apparatus - a precise response to how the human body should inhabit a rational interior.
The structure is polished stainless steel tubing, reduced to its load-bearing essentials. Seat and backrest are slung leather, taut and adjustable, suspended between the frame with an almost architectural tension. Concealed steel springs behind the upholstery deliver comfort without concession to ornament.
The trio worked through numerous prototypes, each iteration driven by a commitment to form following function in its most rigorous sense. Nearly a century later, that discipline is undiminished. Cassina produces the LC1 under license from the Le Corbusier Foundation, adhering to the original specifications - the same proportions, the same materiality, the same quiet authority.
