Pierre Jeanneret was a Swiss architect who opened an atelier with his cousin, Le Corbusier. Together they designed some of the most famous buildings of the 20th century, such as the Villa Savoye and the Villa La Roche in Paris. Their cooperation ended with World War II, when Le Corbusier supported the Vichy regime while Pierre joined the French Resistance. In 1955 they united again to build the new city of Chandigarh, in the Indian Punjab. Le Corbusier spent relatively little time on the project, but Pierre Jeanneret continued to work on it for a further 15 years.




PJ-SI-29-A

Iconic Easy Chair, 1955, with A-shaped legs which are specific for many Chandigarh items. Raw and reduced to the minimum. That is perhaps the reason, why it embodies nonchalance, simplicity and the beauty of Indian askese.
