Ah, the famous Le Corbusier LC2 sofa, one of the most famous modernist designs of the 20th century. The famous Swiss designer created this covet-worthy masterpiece in 1928 in collaboration with French designer Charlotte Perriand. The following year, it wowed the art and design world at the Paris Salon d' Automne (the "Autumn Salon," organized by none other than Georges Rouault, André Derain, Henri Matisse). I could never afford a real one, so I got this one and I am extremely happy. I have carefully compared my version to the real one and cannot tell the difference. If you want a gorgeous piece of modernist history in your home, this is great bet.
This is just a great little leather couch. Perfect for a smaller urban condo. Classic design, ships assembled. This is not a lounging couch but is modern and small scale so great for smaller spaces, easy to move, came well packaged and protected. Excellent purchase, Checked a lot of online retailers and with the shipping this was by far the best deal.
This sofa fits perfectly in my 1br apartment. I have one room that serves as both a living room and a dining room, so I'm using the sofa to separate the two spaces. Because it has a low back, I'm able to achieve this approach without making the room feel any smaller than it already is. Plus, anyone sitting in the dining room has a great view of the sofa's chrome back, which is beautiful. This sofa is definitely on the smaller side. I'm short and can barely lie down across the seats. Like most other reviewers, I've found the sofa to be sturdy and the leather soft, but the piece as a whole not very comfortable. The cushions are quite stiff. I'm hoping that they will get softer with continued use. I ordered the sofa on a Sunday and it was delivered 12 days later, so order processing and delivery time was pretty fast. I live on the ground floor of my apartment complex, so the delivery person was able to put it in my unit without too much trouble. When I opened the box and inspected the piece I found small scratches on the chrome that surrounds the cushions and that the leather has some small patches of inconsistency. Any normal person wouldn't notice these flaws if they weren't looking for them, but being such an ocd shopper, I found them pretty easily. I shopped around a lot before I decided to buy this sofa and am very satisfied with my purchase. It's a stylish piece that matches the modern theme I'm going for without being too expensive. I'd definitely buy this sofa again. That is, unless I find myself willing and able to spend 5x as much for the real Le Corbusier sofa, which is much, much more comfortable. For now, this piece will do just fine.
First, I am happy with my purchase. I knew it was going to be small and by the looks of it, uncomfortable. Still, this piece is just gorgeous. My first guest sat in it and said it reminded her of the sofas they have in the waiting room of hair salons. Pros: Arrived assembled and well packaged. Very easy to transport. Perfect for smaller rooms, it can be a very versatile piece. A high quality leather with excellent fit and finish. Classic design knockoff for 1/6 the price of an original Le Corbusier. Cons: Small and uncomfortable. Forget seating three adults, forget falling asleep on in. The cushions are very firm and I have some concern for them breaking down as the lines of the sofa would be ruined by cushions that might lose their shape. I am happy I didnt order the chair along with the sofa, despite the excellent offering price.
The customer reviews on this sofa were very helpful to me, so I thought I would leave one as well. I have had my eyes on the 'licensed' version of this design classic at the MoMA store for years but never thought I could afford one. This is the next best thing, and it's one of the best values for the price I have ever seen. I want to echo that this is a small three-seater, very low to the ground and with a very low back. I like that, as I use it to separate living from dining areas as other reviewers have said. The low back makes it not one of the most comfortable pieces of furniture ever, but with some beautiful pillows from West Elm, it looks great and is totally suitable for television or DVD watching. I have even napped on it on occasion. I paired it with the Eileen Gray side table that Overstock also sells and everyone who sees the modernist look I've created is wowed. The sofa comes packed securely so you can set it up and enjoy it immediately. For someone who has coveted this sofa for many years, I was in heaven when this arrived looking soooo cool!! Overstock has made a lifelong customer!
I actually ordered this sofa as a set with a matching companion chair which, it seems, is no longer available so I'm doubly thrilled! The sofa reminds me of something you'd see in the Museum of Modern Art in NYC. The lines are simple, clean, elegant and classic. It looks EXACTLY as it does online and is a great sofa for a smaller space or for people like me who hate "hulking" over-stuffed pieces. The cushions are very firm but with time I'm sure they'll soften. I'm DELIGHTED with this purchase. Overstock is amazing! I tell everyone I know -- if you're shopping for just about anything, check Overstock first! Great items, great prices and wonderful customer service.
It's a good quality product for the price. It's a liitle small. It looks much bigger on the picture
I love this couch and eyed it for a while before actually purchasing it. It is not a couch for comfy snuggling or laying around but I ordered it for the style and am very pleased. It is comfortable for sitting. It looks just like the picture. It is also light-weight enough for me to move by myself if need be.
This is a really modern sofa with an excellent look and perfect size for my small living room. I adore Le Corbusier designs but the original would be too expensive. Fortunately we have Overstock where we can find excellent quality pieces on affordable price.
This sofa is really modern and elegant, having the perfect size. I ordered it into my office as spend the majority of my time there and sometimes AI need to relax for a while. This piece has the perfect size to be cozy and comfortable, and the modern and elegant design matches with the office decor. I am really thinking of buying one to my smaller living.
