Kangaroo Armchair with Vienna straw seat: Cassina continues its study of the furniture of the city of Chandigarh and adds the Kangaroo low armchair to the Hommage à Pierre Jeanneret Collection; a collection that stands out for its essential forms and simple materials, a balance between modern European ideals and traditional Indian spirit.

This low chair, made for the city’s General Hospital Hall but also present in many private houses, is characterised by the "Z" shape of its sides, made up of a sequence of three vaguely triangular coplanar elements placed in continuity.

The seat and backrest feature typical weaving inside the wooden frame, for which, in addition to the historic teak version, the Cassina Research and Development Centre offers two further variants, in natural oak and stained black oak, produced in the company’s historic carpentry workshop.

An optional cushion is available for added protection and comfort.

Pierre Jeanneret

Designer

Pierre Jeanneret

Pierre Jeanneret (1896–1967) was a French-Swiss architect and designer whose pragmatic yet elegant approach left a significant mark on 20th-century modernism. A cousin and close collaborator of Le Corbusier and Charlotte Perriand, Jeanneret contributed to defining the visual and functional language of modern design through architecture and furniture.

Best known for his work on the city of Chandigarh in India, Jeanneret designed robust, functional furniture that harmonizes with its local context and cultural setting. His designs emphasize clean lines, natural materials, and a balance between simplicity and utility.

Throughout his career, Jeanneret demonstrated a commitment to integrating design with social and environmental realities, making his work deeply relevant both historically and today.

The Cassina reissues of his iconic pieces, such as the Kangaroo chair, celebrate his legacy, merging Swiss-French modernist vision with Italian craftsmanship.
