Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, better known as Le Corbusier, is one of the most recognised iconic designers of the 20th century. Designed in 1928, the LC4 chaise longue is the most iconic of Le Corbusier's designs and the only one on which he worked personally. He called it "resting machine". It is most remarkable that the rest position can be adjusted without any mechanism - gravity will keep it in place. The authentic licensed chairs are still made in Italy by Cassina, who own the worldwide manufacturing rights.
