General:

LC3 Grand Modele Designed in 1928. Salon d’Automne, 1929

The differences among the groups are that the LC2 is more compact, and the LC3 has down-wrapped cushions that create a softer look and feel.

The Le Corbusier group referred to their LC2 and LC3 collections as "cushion baskets" which they designed in 1928 as a modernist response to the traditional club chair.

The pieces reverse the standard structures of sofas and chairs by having frames that are externalized

Cassina in Italy holds the exclusive worldwide license from the Le Corbusier Foundation.
