Ever wondered, how did an obsolete chair design emerge so much that most of the architecture and design magazine companies are running reviews on this style?
How did the Pierre Jeanneret chairs make it to the homes of various celebrities, with Kardarshians being a name among them?
History of Pierre Jeanneret Chairs
Chandigarh is known as the first planned city of modern India. Ancient India’s every city was well planned, but temporarily, we can let the former colonizers pat their own shoulders.
Well! Assuming that it was the first planned city of Modern India, the erstwhile government appointed Le Corbusier, an architect, to plan and get the city of Chandigarh constructed. Corbusier further asked his cousin Pierre Jeanneret, another designer, to design the furniture and add some finishing touches.
Most of the furniture he used was made out of locally available resources, such as teak wood and rattan ropes. The resultant furniture also turned out to be lightweight and was capable of representing India. They were a common sight in public buildings.
The chairs made no hype for a century. Soon, they were obsolete and were sold as scrap.
Various Indian and Foreigner designers tried their luck with the scrap and they have been successful in introducing these chairs, but this time with a hype.
Why should you invest in a Pierre Jeanneret Chair?
