Revisited by Perriand in 1984, and relaunched by Cassina one year later. Manufactured by Cassina in Italy.

Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand and Pierre Jeanneret exhibited the first version of this table at the 1929 Salon d’Automne in Paris, as part of the “Equipement Intérieur d’une Habitation” setting. The design, which was originally presented as a writing-desk, was revisited by Perriand in 1984, and relaunched Cassina one year later, with new variants appropriate to contemporary needs. Its clean-cut frame highlights the highly original approach to the chrome finish of the tubular steel legs, and the way the colours are applied on the laminated trim. The collection includes a dining table as well as low tables, both in a square and rectangular formats.

About the designer:
In 1922, Le Corbusier began working in the new rue de Sèvres, Paris, atelier with his cousin Pierre Jeanneret with whom he shared research projects and design criteria in a profound and life-long professional relationship.
In October 1927, the pair decided to draw on the contribution of a young architect who had already begun to establish a reputation on the architectural scene of the time: Charlotte Perriand.
Their collaboration lasted through to 1937 and was extremely fruitful, especially in the field of furniture design. The partnership was highly significant, both in terms of the cultural weight of their achievements and their professional successes.

It was together with Charlotte Perriand that the pair tackled the innovative project for “l’équipement d'intérieur de l’habitation”.

The resulting designs were of great intellectual value and considerable commercial success.
