Description
The “Cassina I Maestri” (Cassina Masters) collection includes some
of the most important furniture created by leading figures in the
Modern Movement, pieces which have since become landmarks in the
evolution of contemporary design.
The collection is enriched with great designs, which may well
expand in the future to take in other important names. The
amassment fosters the emergence of the absolute values of design,
which transcend space and time, the content of which has never been
explored, thus constituting a fundamental contribution to current
design research. These pieces fit into contemporary furnishing
schemes with the utmost naturalness, blending in as effortlessly as
furniture designed this year.
Early in his career, Charles-Edouard Jeanneret, also known as Le
Corbusier, was met with some resistance to his work. Owing to its
alleged "revolutionary" nature and the radical look it acquired
from its "purist" form. In time, however, it won the recognition it
deserved and is still widely admired.
All the models in the Cassina Masters collection, by merit of their
artistic content and particular creative character, are protected
by copyright. The exclusive reproduction rights have been acquired
by Cassina.
