"7 Siège tournant, fauteuil": designed by Charlotte Perriand in 1927 for her flat in place Saint-Sulpice, Paris, this small armchair was first exhibited at the 1928 Salon des Artistes Décorateurs in the Salle à Manger 28, and subsequently at the 1929 Salon d’Automne, integrated within the collection co-signed by Le Corbusier, Pierre Jeanneret and Charlotte Perriand.
This seat takes its inspiration from the office swivel chairs that were fashionable in England and in the United States at the beginning of the last century. The vertical legs curve at right angles to become horizontal and meet in the centre beneath the seat to form the revolving mechanism of the chair. The upholstered back, a curved cylinder of leather or fabric, has a metal tube running through it which curves down at right angles at the front to fasten it to the seat; this reveals another dimension of the research carried out into these creations: the introduction of functionalism to the home.
