Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret collaborated in 1925 to create the LC-12 table for Cassina.
The conventional view is inverted, and the stereotypical roles between the various pieces are dismantled, all thanks to the striking contrast between the large and imposing support surface and the delicate structural elements. The rectangular top, which can be made of glass or wood, is supported by a tubular steel structure that can be either painted or polished; this redesigns the lines of a second support plane, bringing to life a dimensional antinomy explored by Le Corbusier in earlier works.
The four tubular steel legs may be seen just below this level, delineated along the outside edges. The glass's lightness and the enclosed volumes' essential shapes elevate the support surface's structural importance.
