About the Item

This beautiful Scandinavian four-seater sofa recalls the peak of Nordic mid-century modern design. Thanks to its geometric shape and slim, tapered legs, it is exceptionally cosy and elegant. Furniture from this era revolutionised the history of what we consider modern design today, and sofa models like this in particular have become unrivalled references in it. A perfect blend of form and function, this sofa has a very precise, defined outline, accentuated by the visually sectioned back and seats. There is a great balance in the design, which is achieved through the clever use of the straight and rounded edges. It is upholstered in a soft green fabric that exudes a serene and organic feel, characteristic of Scandinavian design. The fabric creates visual interest through its pleasant texture, while maintaining a clean, honest aesthetic. Supporting the body are two sets of tapered wooden legs, thus balancing out the voluptuous profile. The Scandinavian modern movement is known for its simplicity, functionality, and emphasis on expert craftsmanship which is evident in this piece. The design of this model not only creates an intimate gathering place, but can also define the look of a room whilst keeping the warmth and cosiness that is often associated with mid-century design. It’s both practical and stylish, crafted with a focus on comfort and timeless elegance. Today, mid-century furniture is sought after by collectors for its classic look, storied design and solid quality, exemplified by this sofa. With its restrained aesthetic, it creates a sense of tranquillity while the masterful sense of materials and proportions guarantee functionality and comfort. Condition: In vintage condition.

Swedish Mid-Century Cabinetmaker Sofa, Sweden 1950s
Located in Utrecht, NL
Svensk design, “Swedish design”, is unquestionably a conventional and popular branding device, with many companies explicitly promoting their products as examples of god design, “good design”. But svensk design does not simply represent “good” design made in Sweden, it also projects a powerful, concrete rendering of a sort of essentialized “Swedishness” embedded in objects, such as this sofa. Rounded out lines, unexpected curvature and innovative shapes from every angle define the design of this model. The aesthetic recalls classic English upholstered furniture...
