About the Item

Introducing the Pierre Jeanneret 056 Capitol complex dining set, a timeless design that exudes elegance and sophistication. Originally designed by Pierre Jeanneret in the 1950s for the Legislative Assembly building in Chandigarh, this iconic set has been relaunched by Cassina in 2019. Crafted in Italy with the finest materials, this set includes a dining table, 2 chairs, and 2 armchairs. Jeanneret was a key figure in the realization of Chandigarh and his close contact with the local territory led him to combine essential forms with simple materials, creating a meeting point between modern European ideals and traditional Indian spirit. The Capitol Complex was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2016, sparking renewed interest in this architectural work of art and the furniture used in it. Though overshadowed by his cousin Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret was a visionary of modernist architecture and design. Together, the pair pioneered a new aesthetic vocabulary that placed function and order over embellishment, with Jeanneret imbuing the strict geometry of modernism with energetic diagonals and lighter materials like cane and wood. Cassina is a company that has manufactured iconic pieces of contemporary design from the 1950s to the present day, ideated by some of the most important international designers. Today, Cassina continues to look to the future of design with audacious, passionate curiosity and an open, holistic approach. With its impeccable craftsmanship, rich history, and iconic design, the Pierre Jeanneret 056 Capitol Complex Dining Set is a must-have for any collector or design enthusiast. _____ Dining Set designed by Pierre Jeanneret circa 1950, relaunched in 2019. Manufactured by Cassina in Italy. Set consisting of Dining Table, 2x chairs and 2x Armchairs. The inclusion of the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2016 has aroused great interest in Le Corbusier’s Capitol Complex, an extraordinary architectural work created in Chandigarh in 1951 to celebrate the independence of a nation open to modernity. Among the furniture used in the Legislative Assembly building is this large conference table. Almost as if to evoke the solemn functions of the place, this model has a base made up of two important and graphic solid wood elements with a characteristic “corns entrecroisées” shape. In addition to the historic version with teak top and structure, the Cassina re-edition offers two variants in natural and black stained oak and the option of a glass top in different sizes. These product is a tribute to Pierre Jeanneret, a key figure in the realization of Chandigarh. His experience in India lasted until the end of his days in 1967. His close and continuous contact with the local territory led him to combine essential forms with simple materials to create a meeting point between modern European ideals and the traditional Indian spirit. The Chandigarh project is considered Le Corbusier’s most mature work that summarizes his poetics, technique and ideology, consistent with his will to research and contribute to the culture of architecture and design.

Together, the pair pioneered a new aesthetic vocabulary that placed function and order over embellishment, Jeanneret’s work imbuing the strict geometry of modernism with energetic diagonals and lighter materials like cane and wood. A consistent innovator, he collaborated with Charlotte Perriand on experiments in aluminum and wood, and developed prefabricated housing with Jean Prouvé. In the early 1950s Jeanneret joined his cousin in Chandigarh, India, where they embarked on a massive urban-planning project, laying out the city and designing low-cost buildings and furniture. Though Corbusier abandoned the project halfway through, Jeanneret remained for 15 years as the project’s chief architect. The city remains a masterpiece of the modern vision. About the manufacturer: In a continuing dialogue between past, present, and future, Cassina has created the I Maestri collection, revisiting furnishing designs by the 20th century’s best-known architects, including Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, Charlotte Perriand, Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Gerrit Thomas Rietveld, Franco Albini, Frank Lloyd Wright and Marco Zanuso.

This is also the company that has manufactured iconic pieces of contemporary design from the 1950s to the present day, ideated by some of the most important international designers.
