Product Details

Product Description

The Civil Bench, originally designed by Pierre Jeanneret in 1955 and 1956 for the Indian city of Chandigarh, has been relaunched in 2020 by Cassina in Italy. This piece is part of the Hommage à Pierre Jeanneret Collection, characterized by its simple forms and traditional materials that blend modern European ideals with the Indian spirit. The bench features three seats with a frontal crossbar and V-shaped side supports, and is made of wood and Viennese cane weaving, a recurring element in the Collection. Cushions are included for added comfort and protection. This design pays tribute to Pierre Jeanneret, a visionary architect and designer who worked closely with Le Corbusier on the Chandigarh project, where he combined essential forms and simple materials to create a dialogue between modernism and Indian tradition. Please note that some images show other colors and variations of the model, and that actual colors may vary due to differences in computer screens. Cassina, the manufacturer, has a long history of revisiting iconic designs by famous architects while using advanced technology, and continues to look to the future with passion and an open-minded approach. Their products embody design excellence, cultural authority, and formal sensitive awareness.
