Le Corbusier is rightly famous for his architecture, but the person who arguably deserves more mention here is Charlotte Perriand [1]. She designed the LC4 together with Pierre Jeanneret, Le Corbusier's cousin, who was also a great designer. But Le Corbusier took credit for this chair and other furniture that she designed, and she never achieved anywhere near the fame of Le Corbusier during her lifetime. Fortunately, this is changing.
