🔺While in Chandigarh, Le Corbusier invited Pierre Jeanneret to help build the city of Chandigarh in India, and asked Jeanneret to design a chair for civil servants in government buildings.
In order to resist the humidity and insects in India, Jeanneret chose local teak wood, which is cheap, insect-proof and moisture-proof. He drew inspiration from traditional Indian crafts. The furniture made by local craftsmen according to his design is simple, practical, sturdy and cool. Comfortable.
Indians have always had the habit of sitting on the floor, and the starting point of its design is to "let the citizens of Chandigarh have chairs to sit on." In this way, based on this extremely simple original intention, Pierre Jeanneret used his unique aesthetic concept to create an office rattan chair-the Chandigarh chair, which accidentally became an eternal chair. classic.
