Finding the Right Seating for You
With entire areas of our homes reserved for “sitting rooms,” the value of quality antique and vintage seating cannot be overstated.
Fortunately, the design of side chairs, armchairs and other lounge furniture — since what were, quite literally, the early perches of our ancestors — has evolved considerably.
Among the earliest standard seating furniture were stools. Egyptian stools, for example, designed for one person with no seat back, were x-shaped and typically folded to be tucked away. These rudimentary chairs informed the design of Greek and Roman stools, all of which were a long way from Sori Yanagi's Butterfly stool or Alvar Aalto's Stool 60. In the 18th century and earlier, seats with backs and armrests were largely reserved for high nobility.
The seating of today is more inclusive but the style and placement of chairs can still make a statement. Antique desk chairs and armchairs designed in the style of Louis XV, which eventually included painted furniture and were often made of rare woods, feature prominently curved legs as well as Chinese themes and varied ornaments. Much like the thrones of fairy tales and the regency, elegant lounges crafted in the Louis XV style convey wealth and prestige. In the kitchen, the dining chair placed at the head of the table is typically reserved for the head of the household or a revered guest.
Of course, with luxurious vintage or antique furnishings, every chair can seem like the best seat in the house. Whether your preference is stretching out on a plush sofa, such as the Serpentine, designed by Vladimir Kagan, or cozying up in a vintage wingback chair, there is likely to be a comfy classic or contemporary gem for you on 1stDibs.
With respect to the latest obsessions in design, cane seating has been cropping up everywhere, from sleek armchairs to lounge chairs, while bouclé fabric, a staple of modern furniture design, can be seen in mid-century modern, Scandinavian modern and Hollywood Regency furniture styles.
Admirers of the sophisticated craftsmanship and dark woods frequently associated with mid-century modern seating can find timeless furnishings in our expansive collection of lounge chairs, dining chairs and other items — whether they’re vintage editions or alluring official reproductions of iconic designs from the likes of Hans Wegner or from Charles and Ray Eames. Shop our inventory of Egg chairs, designed in 1958 by Arne Jacobsen, the Florence Knoll lounge chair and more.
No matter your style, the collection of unique chairs, sofas and other seating on 1stDibs is surely worthy of a standing ovation.
Questions About Le Corbusier Leather
- What was Le Corbusier’s style?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Le Corbusier’s style of design is known as brutalism and his furniture designs are minimalist and efficient. Many of his furniture pieces combine industrial design with comfort and warmth. Shop a selection of Le Corbusier furniture from some of the world’s top dealers on 1stDibs.
- What was Le Corbusier’s theory?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 8, 2024Le Corbusier's theory is known as the five points of architecture. Developed in the 1920s, these principles had a major influence on the approach to modern architecture and include pilotis (elevating a building on pylons), the free design of a façade, the free design of a ground plan, a horizontal window and a roof garden. The architect prioritized modern, open interiors and emphasized light, rational designs. His architecture and interiors share a clear sense of space and structural order, underscoring beauty in harmony, proportion and simplicity. He rejected excessive architectural ornament and created buildings with elemental geometric forms that were made of industrial materials such as steel and reinforced concrete. Le Corbusier’s furniture espoused these same ideals. His designs are spare, minimal and efficient, but at the same time, they offer supreme comfort. On 1stDibs, explore a selection of Le Corbusier furniture.
- What is Le Corbusier famous for?2 Answers1stDibs ExpertFebruary 22, 2021Le Corbusier was an architect, furniture designer and city planner who is famous for designs that combined bold expression and function. He promoted open, efficient spaces and clean geometric forms. Find furniture designed by Le Corbusier and his collaborators on 1stDibs.1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022The Swiss-born Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, best known by his adopted name Le Corbusier, is famous for his work as an architect, city planner and designer who combined bold sculptural expressionism with functionality. Often referred to as the pioneer of progress-minded architecture, Le Corbusier is widely influential. His career spanned almost five decades, and his furniture is known to be refined and chic. Shop a selection of Le Corbusier furniture on 1stDibs.
- What did Le Corbusier invent?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Le Corbusier invented a style of design called brutalism, which is characterized by unornamented, sleek and smooth furniture and architecture. The design style emphasizes hand-crafted, natural elements and rejects modern materials and technology. Shop a range of Le Corbusier furniture on 1stDibs.
- Why is he called Le Corbusier?1 Answer1stDibs ExpertAugust 15, 2024The Swiss architect and designer is called Le Corbusier because he chose the name for himself. Born Charles-Édouard Jeanneret, Le Corbusier derived his pseudonym from the surname Lecorbésier, which belonged to some of his family members. A pioneer of progress-minded modern architecture, Le Corbusier sought to impose a rational order on the chaos of the world through design. He rejected excessive architectural ornament and created buildings with elemental geometric forms. Le Corbusier’s furniture espouses these same ideals. His designs are spare, minimal and efficient, but at the same time offer supreme comfort. Find a wide range of Le Corbusier furniture on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2022Le Corbusier furniture is part of the modernist movement, with simple and sleek designs at the forefront of all furniture pieces. Shop a collection of Le Corbusier furniture from some of the world’s top sellers on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertApril 5, 2024Le Corbusier's architectural style was modernism. Specifically, he helped to shape the International Style, which emphasized simple, rectilinear forms and open interior spaces. A fine example of this approach can be seen in Le Corbusier's Villa Savoye in Paris. Not just an architect, Le Corbusier also worked as a designer, and his furniture is largely associated with the mid-century modern design movement. Find a selection of Le Corbusier furniture on 1stDibs.
- 1stDibs ExpertOctober 7, 2024The main difference between Frank Lloyd Wright and Le Corbusier is the architects’ philosophy. Frank Lloyd Wright helped pioneer organic architecture—buildings that coexist harmoniously with their natural surroundings. As a result, he often preferred to use natural and even local materials in his buildings and furniture. Le Corbusier was more progress-minded and sought to impose rational order on the world's chaos through design. He focused on designs for living in modern urban settings. In his furniture, he tended to blend natural and human-made materials, such as tubular chrome and genuine leather. On 1stDibs, shop a variety of Frank Lloyd Wright and Le Corbusier furniture.
- 1stDibs ExpertSeptember 27, 2024Charles-Édouard Jeanneret was called Le Corbusier because that was the name the French-Swiss designer and architect chose for himself. His maternal grandfather's name was Lecorbésier, and Jeanneret altered the surname to create his adopted name. Le Corbusier was a pioneer of progress-minded modern architecture who sought to impose rational order on the chaos of the world through design. On 1stDibs, shop a diverse assortment of Le Corbusier furniture.
