le corbusier lc3 outdoor armchair

The LC3 Armchair and two seater sofa, for the first time are presented with a one-piece cushion. The structure is made entirely from polished AISI 304 stainless steel. Many details have been revised to ensure maximum durability and reliability in all weather conditions. These include the use of high class materials, the silver welding, the black PVC foot ends, and the stretched polyester yarn net at the base. The cushion has been developed to withstand all weather conditions.

The cushion insert in water-draining polyurethane allows water to drain through, preventing stagnation mold and unpleasant odors. The padding is ECOFILL, a hollow fiber that is totally natural, organic, hypoallergenic and hydrophilic. It dries quickly when exposed to the elements due to its lightness and high air content (about 80%). ECOFILL is soft to the touch and very comfortable. It is also totally biodegradable. There are two types of fabric available for the outdoor line-up: Outdoor Sunbrella Canvas, a high tenacity polyester yarn coated in PVC, and Outdoor Sunbrella Sling stain-resistant acrylic yarn treated with an exclusive formulation, called Glen Raven. Both types are totally mold resistant, ISO 9001 certified, and available in 5 colors. Every chair comes with a protective water repellent cover for use during the winter season.

The "Cassina I Maestri" (Cassina Masters) collection includes some of the most important furniture created by leading figures in the Modern Movement, pieces which have since become landmarks in the evolution of contemporary design.

Early in his career, Charles-Edouard Jeanneret, also known as Le Corbusier, was met with some resistance to his work. Owing to its alleged "revolutionary" nature and the radical look it acquired from its "purist" form. In time, however, it won the recognition it deserved and is still widely admired.

All the models in the Cassina Masters collection, by merit of their artistic content and particular creative character, are protected by copyright. The exclusive reproduction rights have been acquired by Cassina.
