Iconic LC2 sofa, designed in 1928 by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand, and produced by Cassina, one of the absolute manifestos of 20th-century modern design and a timeless symbol of the Modern Movement.
The LC2 model was conceived as a radical expression of the concept of the “machine for sitting,” where function is brought to its highest formal clarity.
The visible tubular metal supporting frame, here in the classic black finish, envelops and contains the upholstered volumes like a true architectural exoskeleton. It is a clear design statement: the structure is not hidden but becomes language, graphic sign and spatial frame.
The independent seat, backrest and armrest cushions define a modular system of pure volumes, visually suspended within the metal cage. This solution, revolutionary for its time, introduced an unprecedented sense of rational comfort: welcoming yet rigorous, generous yet controlled. The result is a perfect balance between ergonomics, proportion and geometric abstraction.
The proposed example is upholstered in original Cassina fabric with a multicolored geometric pattern, a refined and less common choice compared to the leather versions, which enhances the decorative and graphic character of the project without betraying its modernist essence. The vibrant yet harmonious pattern dialogues with the metal structure, creating an intellectual contrast between industrial rigor and textile sensitivity, perfectly coherent with Charlotte Perriand’s vision.
Produced by Cassina as part of the renowned “Le Corbusier®, Pierre Jeanneret®, Charlotte Perriand®” collection, the LC2 sofa is manufactured according to the highest quality standards, with absolute attention to materials, original proportions and construction details. Every element faithfully respects the historic design, making this sofa not merely a piece of furniture, but an object of design culture.
Exhibited in the most important museums worldwide and featured in countless iconic interiors, the LC2 is today considered a timeless classic, capable of transcending eras and styles: from rationalism to minimalism, from modernist interiors to the most sophisticated contemporary spaces. Introducing it into a space means making a conscious, cultivated and definitive choice.
A sofa that does not follow trends, but created them. An absolute icon, destined to endure.
