The Capitol Complex armchair is Cassina's reinterpretation of the historic model designed by Pierre Jeanneret, which became famous for its presence in Le Corbusier's Capitol Complex, from which it takes its name.
Capitol Complex Armchair by PIERRE JEANNERET
The Capitol Complex, located in Chandigarh, is an extraordinary architectural masterpiece that was included in the prestigious UNESCO World Heritage list in 2016. This remarkable creation was built in 1951 to commemorate the independence of a nation embracing modernity. Within the halls of the Capitol Complex, there are chairs with generous upholstery, offering unparalleled comfort. These chairs, inspired by Pierre Jeanneret, are characterized by "V" supports. The supports, connection crossbars, and the end parts where the armrests meet the backrest are the only visible wooden components, adding a warm and natural touch to the overall design. The enveloping upholstery of the armrests defines a rounded geometric shape, while the seat and backrest cushions are distinct, providing an immediate sense of comfort combined with elegance and simplicity. The Capitol Complex armchair represents the harmony between form and functionality, creating an inviting and cozy ambiance.
In its re-edition of the Capitol Complex armchair, Cassina offers not only the historic teak version but also three variations in natural oak, black-stained oak, and dark walnut-stained oak. This variety of finishes allows the chair to adapt to different styles of decor, ensuring a perfect integration into any space. The upholstery utilizes polyurethane foam with differentiated densities, ensuring optimal support and lasting comfort. The fabrics and leathers used for the upholstery of Cassina sofas and armchairs, including the Capitol Complex armchair, are of high quality, adding a touch of luxury and refinement. The choice of fabric or leather further allows customization, creating a unique piece that adapts to individual tastes and styles.
The Capitol Complex armchair by Cassina is an iconic design that combines history, elegance, and comfort. The collection also includes a sofa, which maintains the same distinctive design and craftsmanship as the chair but offers an even more comfortable and inviting seating experience.
