Capitol Complex Office Chair

Originally designed to furnish the offices of the Capitol Complex Secretariat building in Chandigarh, this chair has been reinterpreted by Cassina as a tribute to Pierre Jeanneret. The designer, along with Le Corbusier and Charlotte Perriand, played a key role in the creation of the government complex in 1951, which became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2016. The chair reflects Jeanneret's preference for quality materials and minimalist forms. It is constructed of oak with a Viennese rattan seat that appears to float between two inverted V-shaped supports.
