This Le Corbusier chaise longue was presented to the Salon d’Automne in Paris in 1929. Its chrome plated upper structure rests on a black iron base. The broken line of the lounging top is elegantly contrasted with the amply curved support . Le Corbusier’s inspiration for this chaise longue was the Kangaroo sofa that possessed unconventional curves to conform to a person at rest. The Kangaroo day bed was designed in 1830 here in the United States in the state of Virginia. The stability of the upper structure, at any angle of inclination is ensured by friction against the rubber covering the pedestal crosspieces. The LC4 Chaise Longue is included in the permanent design collection of The Museum of Modern Art.
