Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the LC3 Outdoor different from the indoor version?
The LC3 Outdoor replaces the indoor frame materials with stainless steel finished in a textured paint for weather resistance, and the cushions are upholstered in water-repellent fabric. The proportions and overall geometry remain true to the 1928 original.
Who originally designed the LC3, and when?
The LC3 was designed in 1928 by the collaborative trio of Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand as part of a broader system of furniture intended to complement their architectural vision of the modern interior.
Is the LC3 Outdoor suitable for year-round exterior use?
The stainless steel frame and textured paint finish are selected for durability in outdoor conditions, and the water-repellent cushion fabric resists moisture. As with all fine outdoor furniture, covering or storing cushions during prolonged exposure to harsh weather will extend their life.
How does the LC3's design philosophy translate to an outdoor context?
The LC3's core concept, a clear separation of structural frame and upholstered cushion, reads with particular clarity outdoors, where natural light emphasizes the contrast between the steel skeleton and the soft, geometric seat and back pads.
Can the LC3 Outdoor be configured as part of a larger seating arrangement?
Cassina produces the LC3 system in multiple forms, including armchairs and sofas, all sharing the same structural grammar and dimensions, so pieces can be arranged together with visual and spatial consistency.
