PJ-TAT-14-A
Very rare table, known as “Boomerang table”. Thick, square veneered top with straight sides resting on four wide, tapered vertical legs, presented face-on. ca. 1963
The legs are the characteristic element of that table. They have the shape of two crossing bows. In his later work Le Corbusier loved to integrated elements of his philosophy into the shape. There were symbolic elements he started to added, giving his items a much deeper meaning. Le Corbusier has left long time ago the path of pragmatic and functional thinking and was more focusing on the mystical and spiritualistic aspects. So India with its strong spiritual connection was the perfect spot to express his ideas of an eternal truth.
That is one of the few pieces of design Le Corbusier designed for Chandigarh.
