Created in 1928 and exhibited at the paris salon d’automne in 1929, chaise longue à reglage continu embodies the relationship between form and function in the balance between design purity and comfort. Starting with the analysis of lounge chairs and the proportions inferred by le corbusier in the modulor, the chaise longue embodies the concept of comfort in the shape of the seat, which is modeled on the natural contours of the body. The recliner in trivalent chrome plated steel, is angled to promote relaxation and its stability is ensured through friction with the rubber tubes that sheathe the crosspieces on the base. Upholstered in fabric, leather or hair-on leather. Structure frame in tubular steel, polished chrome finish. Cushion cover leather. Base in tubular steel painted black. Designed in 1928 and made famous since 1965 by cassina, chaise longue à réglage continu is the quintessential chaise longue – the shape of relaxation – that grew out of the desire of the three designers to place humans at the centre of attention, thanks to the relationship between form and function during rest, in perfect balance between geometric purity and the human body. With sustainability in mind, this chaise is made using circular materials. The mattress padding is made of recycled polyester wadding and the headrest is in blown recycled polyester fibre. The interior of the mattress is now attached with velcro, a detail that allows easier disassembly of the product.
