“Blown Away Man” by Steven Steigman, featuring the LC2 chair designed by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, and Charlotte Perriand.
Architects have long used their talents to design more than buildings. One favorite object of their affection: the chair. From Le Corbusier to Frank Lloyd Wright, illustrious architects have created some of the world’s most-iconic recliners, stools, chaise longues, and other objects devoted to resting our derrieres. Here, just in time for the 2013 Salone del Mobile in Milan, we feature a collection of all-star chairs produced in the past century for Cassina, the venerable Italian furniture maker. Take a seat and enjoy the tour!
