The 2 Fauteuil Grand Confort, Petit Modèle armchair by Cassina embodies the essence of modernity: a timeless model that has marked the history of design, becoming an internationally renowned icon. Designed for comfortable conversation, the armchair was exhibited at the Salon d'Automne in Paris in 1929 as the archetype of the modern concept of furniture, understood by the designers as 'domestic equipment'.
Its sober and sophisticated lines are highlighted by the slender metal structure, which embraces and supports the generous cushions, emphasising the compositional autonomy of each element. This approach reflects the principles of rationalism, in which the separation between the parts recalls the logic of industrial production and evokes the architectural relationship between the supporting structure and the infill elements.
Comfort is guaranteed by the polyurethane foam padding with different densities, enriched with resin-coated polyester fibre wadding and velvet, while the tubular steel frame – polished chrome or painted – ensures optimal strength and support. The refined contrast between the metal structure and the leather or fabric upholstery gives the armchair a timeless charm.
Minimalist and sophisticated, the Cassina 2 Fauteuil Grand Confort, Petit Modèle armchair fits with natural elegance into both contemporary living rooms and contract spaces, where comfort and design interact in perfect harmony. A model that continues to amaze with its balance between luxury and simplicity.
