A visually one-of-a-kind model is hard to come by nowadays, but this two-seater sofa stands out even among its contemporaries. Scandinavian furniture from the mid-20th century revolutionized the history of what we consider modern design today, with a good reason. Starting from the wood to the joinery and assemblage, this piece is exemplary of architectural minimalism.

This unique sofa brings into mind minimalism, the artistic and architectural philosophy, recognized, and often imitated, for its childlike simplicity and frankness. In the case of Scandinavian mid-century design, the simplicity of the pieces is a well-though out, masterfully crafted element, which can be observed clearly in this two-seater sofa. The design is reduced to its necessary elements, but these elements - the clever use of flat and straight lines for the structure and the upholstered seat and back – are constructed in such a way that the result is striking. The birchwood is the base, a sort of palette on which the upholstered seat and back cushion’s light bouclé fabric stands out beautifully. Both in the front and at the top, the bouclé flows over the wood, wrapping the edges. Thanks to the overreaching seat and back, this sofa has both a light and wide look, commanding the space around it.

A small masterpiece, this sofa is guaranteed to bring uniqueness to any surrounding. The four birchwood veneered parts pair brilliantly with the light bouclé upholstery to create a modern, understated look. This sofa originates from a Swedish manufactory, and is a great representation of the quality and craftsmanship of Swedish craftsmanship, and the immediately recognizable characteristics of Scandinavian design.
