Domande Frequenti

Who designed the LC3 Armchair and when?

The LC3 was designed in 1928 by the collaborative trio of Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand. It was first presented at the Salon d'Automne in Paris that same year as part of their vision for the "equipment of habitation."

Why is the steel frame left exposed on the LC3?

The exposed tubular steel frame was a conscious expression of the machine aesthetic central to modernist philosophy in the 1920s. Rather than concealing its structure, the LC3 celebrates the frame as a visible, honest element of the design, with cushions resting within it independently.

Is the Cassina LC3 faithful to the original 1928 design?

Cassina produces the LC3 under an official license from the Foundation Le Corbusier, which oversees fidelity to the original specifications, proportions, and construction methods established by the three designers.

What upholstery options are available for the LC3?

The LC3 is available in a range of leathers and fabrics, allowing the chair's architectural form to be interpreted across different material sensibilities while preserving the same geometric clarity in every configuration.

How does the LC3 differ from the LC2?

The LC3 is the grand confort armchair's larger format, offering a deeper seat and more generous proportions than the LC2. Both share the same exposed steel frame and cushion-within-structure logic, but the LC3 presents a more voluminous, enveloping presence.
