Cassina
Founded in 1927 in Meda, Italy, by brothers Cesare and Umberto Cassina, the Cassina house revolutionized the furniture design world with its innovative approach, blending traditional craftsmanship and industrialization. Initially a company specializing in handcrafted furniture, Cassina became a pioneer in the 1950s by collaborating with international designers, integrating technology into mass production while maintaining exceptional artisanal expertise.
The brand entered a new era in 1954, participating in the reconstruction of post-war Italy through innovative collaborations with renowned architects and designers such as Gio Ponti, Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, Charlotte Perriand, and Franco Albini. Cassina helped democratize modern design while creating timeless furniture that has become iconic in contemporary interiors. Cassina was the first to produce emblematic collections such as the LC Collection by Le Corbusier, Jeanneret, and Perriand, redefining furniture standards with pieces like the LC2 armchair and LC4 chaise longue.
