• Iconic design from 1929
• Featured in the MOMA design collection

The unique form of the LC7 Swivel Chair evolved from series of experiments that Le Corbusier applied to reach a perfect proportion and design shape. The chair was first showcased as part of the ‘Living Equipment’ collection at the 1929 Salon d’Automne in Paris. The strong curves of the design create the impressive visual identity of the chair and the padded foam back provides great comfort. The curved, tubular steel legs are an aesthetic and enduring completion of the design, ensuring the stability of the structure. The LC7 Swivel Chair is part of the permanent design collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.

The LC7 Swivel chair has an upholstered back and armrests. INFURN produces the design in quality classic or premium leather in a variety of different colors to match your interior.

Accredited as one of the pioneers of what is now called modern architecture, Charles Le Corbusier was born in Switzerland in 1887. His influence as an architect, designer, urbanist and writer cannot be underestimated, touching and affecting numerous nations worldwide across Europe, America and Asia. Dedicated to providing better living conditions for the residents of crowded cities, Le Corbusier applied such ideology to furniture design. He was obsessed with creating pieces that truly take human shape, form and behaviour into consideration, recognising the deep relationship between proportion and harmony. This ideology and an application of architectural genius are both evident within Le Corbusier’s furniture. Awarded the prestigious Frank P. Brown Medal and AIA Gold Medal in 1961, a celebration of Le Corbusier’s work is best summed up by his portrait featuring on the 10 Swiss francs banknote. His work is visible and showcased on an international scale, with the National Museum of Western Art, Tokyo and the Museum and Gallery of Art in India actually designed by this forefather of Modernism.
