Cassina I Maestri Collection

In 1964, while Le Corbusier and the co-authors were still alive, Cassina signed the contract to start producing the first four models by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret e Charlotte Perriand, employing a philological process which marked the very beginning of the Cassina I Maestri Collection.
By choosing Cassina, Le Corbusier demonstrated great international recognition of the industrial know-how of the Italian company. Cassina immediately accepted the challenge to produce these revolutionary items, unfamiliar at the time, introducing over the years a series of technical innovations to advance the products from a small artisanal production to an industrial manufacturing process.
Thanks to the collection’s commercial success, which went hand in hand with the internationalisation of the company, these products produced in Meda were distributed worldwide, making them the familiar icons that they have become today.
