Armchair - "1, Fauteuil à dossier basculant", designed by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, Charlotte Perriand for Cassina

A light, compact chair designed and presented at the 1929 Salon d’Automne along with other important models, such as the 2, Fauteuil Grand Confort, petit modèle and 3, Fauteuil Grand Confort, grand modèle armchairs, the 6, Table tube d’avion table and the 4, Chaise longue à reglage continu.

As with all of Le Corbusier’s works, the 1, Fauteuil à dossier basculant derives from an in-depth study of human posture. In this case, the chair is intended to relax and foster conversation. Its perfect compositional simplicity, suited to any context, is available in three versions. In addition to the 1929 model, there is the 1928 Villa Church option and the one exhibited in 1930 at the Union des Artistes Modernes.
