5 Canapé, Appartement Le Corbusier (2 seater) from Cassina

Comfortable, contemporary lines distinguish this sofa designed by Le Corbusier for his Paris apartment, where the original model is still preserved – the one that inspired a lengthy re-edition process carried out by Cassina.

In 1974, Charlotte Perriand collaborated in the first reworking of the original, in one size only, with chrome finish. Over the years, the finishes have been expanded and the sizes modified.

The comfortable, elegant structure of the 3-seater sofa 5 Canapé, Appartement Le Corbusier (LC5) is dominated by feather-filled cushions that form the backrest and seat, supported by an instantly recognizable metal base available in the seven collection colours. The current two- or three-seat edition comes with leather or fabric upholstery. This model is part of the Le Corbusier®, Pierre Jeanneret®, Charlotte Perriand® Collection.

The original model is in the apartment of Le Corbusier and his wife Yvonne in Paris.
