Le Corbusier Seating
French, Swiss, 1887-1965
Swiss-born Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, best known by his adopted name Le Corbusier, was a highly influential architect, designer, painter, urban planner and writer whose career spanned almost five decades. His designs for sofas, chairs and other furniture are spare, minimal and efficient but at the same time offer supreme comfort.
A pioneer of progress-minded modern architecture, Le Corbusier sought to impose a rational order on the chaos of the world through design. He rejected the excessive architectural ornament and developed a style that became known as brutalism, creating buildings with elemental geometric forms that were made of industrial materials such as steel and reinforced concrete.
Le Corbusier believed that pure, well-designed spaces could offer a lesson in how little is needed to achieve happiness. To convey this notion, the architect prioritized modern, open interiors and emphasized light, rational designs. His architecture and interiors share a clear sense of space and structural order, underlining the beauty in harmony, proportion and simplicity.
Le Corbusier’s furniture espouses these same ideals. Collaborating with his cousin, Pierre Jeanneret, and trailblazing designer Charlotte Perriand, he devised such iconic pieces as the LC2 Petit Confort armchair and the LC4 chaise longue. Each couples a tubular chrome frame with soft, supple leather upholstery, lending an organic warmth to an industrially made design. In his furniture, Le Corbusier broke new ground in ergonomics.
The shape of the LC4 chaise is taken directly from the human form; the classic cowhide upholstery makes the sitter feel weightless; and the piece features an adjustable positioning mechanism to promote total relaxation. Bereft of ornament and prized for its functionality, the LC series created by Le Corbusier, Perriand, and Pierre is currently manufactured by Cassina.
Such planning and intelligence were the hallmarks of Le Corbusier’s career. Whether in his designs for private residences such as the Villa Savoye near Paris, apartment towers like the Unité D'habitation in Marseilles, or in his furniture, he worked toward a style of living that was expansive and flexible. The strength and simplicity of line of Le Corbusier’s sofas, chaise longues and other seating pieces give them a sculptural presence in any décor, yet they are sublimely restful. And as you will see on 1stDibs, Le Corbusier’s furniture reflects a worldly taste: it is at once refined, cosmopolitan and chic.

Le Corbusier was more progress-minded and sought to impose rational order on the world's chaos through design. He focused on designs for living in modern urban settings. In his furniture, he tended to blend natural and human-made materials, such as tubular chrome and genuine leather. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Frank Lloyd Wright and Le Corbusier furniture.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 27, 2024Charles-Édouard Jeanneret was called Le Corbusier because that was the name the French-Swiss designer and architect chose for himself.

Le Corbusier was a pioneer of progress-minded modern architecture who sought to impose rational order on the chaos of the world through design.
