Cassina: Designer Furniture for the Home

Undoubtedly, Cassina is a historic brand in Italian design from the 1950s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and 90s to the present day.

Today, it continues to produce contemporary furniture alongside the best current international designers, such as Javier Mariscal, and reissues historical pieces, such as the Nuage and Tokyo collections by Charlotte Perriand or the already classic designs by Le Corbusier.

The “Cassina I Maestri” Collection includes some of the most important sofas, armchairs, chairs, tables, and chaise longues created by figures of the Modern Movement, pieces that have become landmarks of contemporary design.

In 1965, the Italian company Cassina began reissuing furniture created by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret, or Charlotte Perriand, followed by Gerrit Thomas Rietveld, Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Erik Gunnar Asplund, and Frank Lloyd Wright.

The collection expanded and enriched in the mid-2000s with furniture designed by Franco Albini. “Cassina I Maestri” has allowed the recovery of the values of contemporary design furniture.

At the same time, the reproduction rights have been exclusively acquired by Cassina: Le Corbusier in 1964, Rietveld in 1971, Mackintosh in 1972, Asplund in 1981, by Wright in 1985, Charlotte Perriand in 2004, and for Franco Albini in 2007.

Throughout its long years of experience, Cassina has relied on the creative genius of the most famous contemporary architects, such as Gio Ponti, Paolo Deganello, Gaetano Pesce, Vico Magistretti, or Mario Bellini.
