The iconic and timeless LC4 chaise longue was created by Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand, and Pierre Jeanneret in 1928 and exhibited at the Salon d’Automne in Paris in 1929. Drawing on an analysis of living room chairs and the proportions derived by Le Corbusier in the Modulor, the chaise longue embodies the relationship between form and function, balancing the purity of its design with the comfort of its seat, modeled after the natural contours of the body. Le Corbusier believed that furniture should be “extensions of our limbs and adapted to human functions.” Designed to mimic the natural curves of the human body at rest, the movable “floating” structure of this iconic armchair adjusts along its base, following your every movement from upright to fully reclined. Known as the “relaxation machine,” the LC4 balances form and function with exquisite precision.
