LC4 Chaise Longue
The iconic and ageless LC4 'chaise longue' chair was created by Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand and Pierre Jeanneret in 1928 and exhibited at the Paris Salon d’Automne in 1929. Starting with the analysis of lounge chairs and the proportions inferred by Le Corbusier in the Modulor, the chaise longue embodies the relationship between form and function in the balance between design purity and comfort in the shape of the seat, which is modeled on the natural contours of the body. Le Corbusier held that furniture should be “extensions of our limbs and adapted to human functions.” Designed to echo the natural curves of the human body in repose, the moveable “floating” frame of this iconic chaise adjusts along the base, following your every move from upright sitting to full recline. Known as the “relaxing machine,” the LC4 balances form and function with beautiful precision.
CONDITION
Very good vintage condition with minor wear consistent with age and use. Leather pad has naturally shifted with use and over time so that the side seams are slightly misaligned along the the left and right sides as per photos. Otherwise, the leather is soft and supple and perfectly worn in. Frames are generally bright and clean.
