"In his Decorative Art, Le Corbusier writes about 'machines for sitting, for classifying, for lighting', in 1924. He starts his battle for the affirmation of a functional and linear design, practical and versatile, with durable materials and formal choices, that goes far beyond the moods of decorative fashions." - Domitilla Dardi, design historian
