The LC 4 chaise longue, presented at the 1929 Salon d'Automne du Design, is the best known of Le Corbusier's furniture. It is a purist, radical design that won critical acclaim in its time and is still a classic of 20th century design today.
An architectural theorist, architect, designer and painter from Switzerland and naturalised French citizen, Le Corbusier is considered one of the clearest exponents of the Modern Movement in architecture, and one of the most influential architects of the 20th century. He developed a new architecture based on five points that would be key to the development of this discipline from then on: the free plan, the terrace-garden, the "pilotis", the longitudinal window and the free façade. Among his most outstanding architectural projects were the Swiss Pavilion in the Cité Universitaire in Paris, the Unité d'Habitation in Marseilles and the chapel of Notre Dame du Aut. in Ronchamp. As a furniture designer, Le Corbusier produced his first creations together with Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand, and received his definitive impetus at the Paris Exposition des Arts Décoratifs in 1925. His first chairs and armchairs were already conceived in terms of comfort, based on anthropometric studies that guaranteed total adaptability to the body. The first design that Le Corbusier created, together with Jeanneret and Perriand, was the LC1 chair, presented in 1928 and characterised by a height-adjustable backrest that allowed the user to choose the most comfortable posture. He continued to work along these lines, and at the 1929 Salon d'Automne du Design he presented his LC4 chaise longue, a purist and radical design that has become a classic today. Equally well known are his LC2, LC3 and LC5 designs, one-, two- and three-seater sofas designed to revolutionise the mass production of modern furniture. We should also mention the design of stools and dining chairs, such as the LC7, presented at the 1929 Salon d'Automne or the LC8. Le Corbusier, Jeanneret and Perriand sought to design furniture for all the rooms in the house, and so they created pieces such as LC9, a very simple stool for the bathroom with a fabric seat. Le Corbusier also created other types of furniture, such as tables and shelves. His designs are currently published by the Italian company Cassina, and are present in important collections such as that of the MoMA in New York and the Victoria & Albert in London.
