Collection: Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand
Brand: Cassina
Specifications:
An entire room for sale, a faithful reproduction of a student room in the Maison du Brésil, inaugurated in 1959 at the Cité Internationale of the University of Paris. In the early 1950s, the Brazilian government commissioned the design from the architect Lucio Costa, who in turn brought Le Corbusier on board, over time handing over more responsibility, to the point that the latter eventually signed off the building design. Le Corbusier’s office revised a number of key elements, and then brought in Charlotte Perriand to help with the interiors. The way Le Corbusier saw it, the wardrobe would separate the entrance hall and the bathroom block from the bedroom and study areas. Charlotte Perriand, on the other hand, took a more rationalist view, favouring the idea of having the wardrobe accessible from more than one side. For the bed frame, solid wood was preferred to metal, with a mattress and bolster. The apartment also included a wall-hung bookcase and blackboard, as well as the Tabouret Maison du Bresil, already available in Cassina Collection.
In 1922 Le Corbusier began a professional activity at the new atelier on rue de Sèvres in Paris together with his cousin Pierre Jeanneret with whom he shared research and design criteria with a profound and lasting understanding, witnessed throughout his life.Together, in October 1927, decide to make use of the contribution of a young architect already present on the operative architectural scene of the moment: Charlotte Perriand. Their collaboration, which will last until 1937, will prove to be extremely fruitful, especially as regards the creation of furniture and the partnership will extremely valid both for the cultural significance of their statements and for the professional results. It is precisely with Charlotte Perriand that the two face in unison the innovative problem of "l'équipement d'intérieur de l'habitation" with results of intellectual fascination and together with positive results on the entrepreneurial level. Still, for the productive contribution promoted by Cassina, an interest persists both in the conceptual sphere and in the quality achieved and there is an increasingly growing expectation for each object included in the collection.

I came across to LineaSelect by mistake and one day I sent them an email to see if they can help me with Devon&Devon bathroom items.
The staff was friendly and our communication easy, with both Aiste and Jaunius, very professional.
Today I received the items and I must say I am impressed. They are exactly as described on the website.
I will return for more items in future for sure and I do recommend this website if you wish to get high quality items for your project. ! 👍

I have exclusively worked with Lineaselect for my house renovation project. I have bought ceramic tiles and other bathroom fittings from them at a very good price. As with any house renovation project, the choice of good material makes all the difference. I started communicating with Jaunius with a simple price offer which evolved into more like continuous communication on range of different products.
He was always very responsive and precise with the information and his brand knowledge is impressive. From the selection to delivery, the whole process was super smooth and transparent. I was a bit unsure about damages during the shipping, however, my order arrived without a single damaged item. Asite from Lineaselect handled the ordering and delivery process very professionally and she was always quick with updating me about the order and delivery status.
They are my go to people for any future home improvement projects and I highly recommend them!
