Le Corbusier applied his vision for a visible external frame which embodied the clean minimalism and industrial rationale of the International Style. Le Corbusier chose chrome plated tubular steel for his design because it was readily available and inexpensive permitting the furniture to be mass produced. There are two leather grades, standard (a high quality Italian top grain leather), & full aniline (the highest quality leather available). Our version is reproduced to the style of the original design.
