Founded by Cesare and Umberto Cassina in Meda, near Milan, in 1927, Cassina produces designer chairs, tables, armchairs, sofas, beds, wardrobes and shelves. Cassina produces high-quality furniture inspired by industrial Italian design.
Cassina was one of the first designer furniture companies to encourage architects and designers, such as Le Corbusier, to design new lines and translate their inspirations into reality, in the midst of a rich and complex era. Cassina has worked to convince designers and architects to explore new ways of expressing forms and working with materials, in order to make their visions reality and create unique designer furniture.
