Product Details
Chaise longue designed by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand, 1928. Produced by Cassina since 1965 as part of the iMaestri collection.
The LC4 Chaise longue à réglage continu combines a polished chrome-plated steel reclining frame with a matt black painted steel base. The reclining frame can be adjusted freely, without visible mechanisms, while the upper mattress, available in leather or hide, follows the curve of the structure. A black leather headrest completes the piece. Designed in 1928, it reflects one of the central ideas of modernism: the relationship between function, structure and comfort.
Design: 1928

Le Corbusier, Perriand & Jeanneret
The collaboration between Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand took shape in Paris during the 1920s, within the Rue de Sèvres Atelier. After starting his practice with Pierre Jeanneret in 1922, Le Corbusier brought Charlotte Perriand on board in 1927. Lasting until 1937, this partnership proved decisive in the field of furniture design, where architecture and furnishings were conceived as parts of a single system, in which function, space, and daily life were closely intertwined. From this collaboration emerged a series of projects that combined conceptual rigor, technical experimentation, and industrial production, laying the foundation for a modern design language that would remain central in design history.
