Renowned for their innovative, high-quality furniture, Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron combined elegant form with straightforward functionality to create their timeless designs. The “Juliette" is one of their most notable series, designed for their company, Votre Maison. This sofa deserves its title of iconic, both in terms of quality and design.

This sofa features a solid oak frame characterised by its sculptural construction. This material is associated with the duo’s most famous models, as oak is both extremely durable and beautiful, displaying a lovely grain throughout. The backrest is composed of eleven curved spindles, which create a round and inviting silhouette that is a hallmark of Guillerme and Chambron’s style. The armrests, also featuring a curved structure, extend seamlessly into the legs, giving the piece a cohesive and organic look. To ensure functionality and comfort, as expected of mid-century modern furniture, the generous seat and back cushions are plus and upholstered in an elegant off-white fabric. The back is adorned with tufted buttons that add depth to the fabric upholstery. The cushions are held securely in place by fabric loops to ensure they remain properly positioned even after prolonged periods of use. The woodworking truly shows the overall quality of this sofa: the frame is refined and the attention to the smallest detail shows the design and manufacturing skills of Guillerme et Chambron.

This two-seater sofa truly exemplifies the thoughtful design and classic appeal of Guillerme et Chambron’s work, blending natural materials with mid-century modern aesthetics. Whether used to define a space or to provide additional seating, the “Juliette” sofa remains a sought-after piece for collectors and design enthusiasts alike.

It was in Denmark that Modernism reigned between the 1920s and 1960s and produced some of the most iconic pieces of furniture to this day. The Danish modernist movement was shaped by two influences. The first was the German Bauhaus; from it, Danish Modernism adopted the trend towards functionalism and this is why one of the hallmarks of Danish furniture is its simplicity. The second was an even earlier influence found in the Funkis style, an aesthetic based on softer lines and rounded shapes.

This beautifully crafted sofa features impeccable edges, sleek minimalism, and subtle curves. The quality of the design is matched by the outstanding workmanship of the maker. The lower wooden frame of this sofa offers a striking contrast to the supple black leather upholstery, creating a visually captivating aesthetic. Its gently flared upholstered arms give the piece a graceful, almost embracing profile, while the deep seat promises true comfort. Throughout the 20th century, solid wood had been the most important furniture material in Scandinavia. This is especially true for the mid-century, during which natural wood was a staple material to enhance both the structural and visual aspect of furniture, as is the case with this three-seater sofa. This piece not only reflects the craftsmanship and design ethos of the 1960s Danish design movement, but also serves as a timeless addition to any modern living space, combining form and function with enduring style. Unlike other designs, Danish products weren’t flashy but rather made to be of high quality and fit a warm, comfortable and welcoming home. Moreover, Danish makers were of the firm belief that beautiful and functional objects should be accessible to everyone.

As a whole, this sofa carries a calm, understated beauty that fits seamlessly into both traditional and contemporary settings. It speaks to the Danish approach to living, where simplicity is enriched by craftsmanship and comfort. It is a reminder of why mid-century Danish design endures: its ability to balance refinement and warmth in a way that still resonates today.

The designer of this sofa pair evidently attached great and equal importance to form and function. With an open design profile, this two-seater model carries with it some of the fundamental characteristics and ideals of mid-century modernism.

Clutter-free and disciplined, they are as functional as they are aesthetically pleasing. The round shape is reminiscent of the Artifort style in that it has a sinuous and expressive quality that is harmonious and organic. There is also a certain quiet power to the design that is pared-down to the essential, exuding simplicity and timelessness. The open construction is made up of the generous seat cushion and the large back that flows towards the front to form the shell of the seat. This creates an inviting and open look which is a signature characteristic of mid-century modernism. Thanks to the sinuous, large surfaces, the velour fabric dominates the overall look, accentuating the round shapes and curves. The short, splayed legs prevent the sofas from looking heavy by slightly lifting them off the ground, while their warm brown colour nicely compliments the elegant colour of the body.

Without any ornamentation, the focus here is on the round, flowing lines of the body and the upholstery. From the muted colour scheme to the material choices, this streamlined design is essentially mid-century modern and therefore, can add that cosy charm into any space.

Originating in the postwar years, the Mid Century Modern movement embraced clean lines, organic forms, and an honest use of materials, rejecting the heavy ornamentation of earlier eras in favour of functional beauty. By the 1960s, European furniture designers had moved past the stark functionalism of early modernism and began exploring new ideas of comfort through foam and plush forms. The result was a generation of sofas that felt architectural yet approachable - models that defined a room while welcoming people into it.

There is a great balance in the execution of this sofa, which is achieved through the clever modular design. The curving form is welcoming, and unmistakable of the era’s design inclinations. The modular form allows for the sofa to be rearranged to fit into a multitude of spaces and the generous back and seat cushions exude an unmatched level of comfort, making this piece perfect for cosy lounging and conversing. The texture of the upholstery gives the sofa a modern edge while also enhancing the generous size of the seats and back. This five-seater was evidently constructed with extraordinary care; allowing it to be placed in any environment to enhance the visual quality of its surroundings. The upholstery adds a modern edge to the natural wood, while keeping the rustic, mid-century look in the focus.

From every single angle, this sofa offers stunning lines and a rich texture. Above all, furniture designers of the era believed that design could certainly be used to improve people's lives. Looking at this model, this was evidently a not too far-fetched ideal.

George Nelson was one of the central figures in the development of American modern design in the mid twentieth century. As design director for Herman Miller from 1945 onward, Nelson played a decisive role in shaping the company’s identity. He constantly explored the idea that furniture should respond to the realities of modern living rather than replicate traditional outdated forms.

This sofa with integrated side table reflects Nelson’s interest in flexible, multi-functional furniture. The seat is long and low, defined by a continuous upholstered cushion and a straight backrest. Rather than ending abruptly and taking a classic form, the sofa extends into a wooden platform that functions as a built-in side table. This element transforms the sofa from an isolated piece of furniture into a small interior composition, providing a surface for books, lamps, or personal objects without the need for additional furniture. The visual contrast between the upholstered section and the veneer surface is central to the design. The warm burnt orange upholstery gives the sofa a soft and comfortable character, while the rich colour and the grain of the side table introduces a more organic warmth. The sofa rests on slender, straight metal legs that lift the entire structure from the floor and further emphasize the linearity of the piece. The legs can be adjusted in height.

Physically, the design prioritises comfort and usability. Rather than separating seat and table, Nelson integrates them into a single, coherent object, showing how furniture can become both a practical everyday object and a clear expression of American mid century modern design.

This rare oak settee is a delightful piece even if measured against the other seating models in the repertoire of the French designer duo, Robert Guillerme and Jacques Chambron. This model truly deserves adjectives such as unique or even iconic, both in terms of quality and design. It visually represents the very reason Votre Maison, the French duo’s company significantly influenced French design history.

From every angle, this settee’s design has unique solutions that are unmistakable. Starting with the duo’s trademark oak frame to the sculptural legs and backrests, while also featuring details that are one-of-a-kind. Such a detail is the curving seat and its joinery, that shows expert craftsmanship and creativity. The curve also serves as a table, adding much functionality and practicality to the sculptural look. The unusual seat resembles a slatted bench, while the two, individual backrests break the flat surfaces and emerge like thrones. The spindles enhance this appearance, especially with the longer, middle spindles that also serve as back legs. The armrests and legs are sculpted with precision to serve a double purpose: an aesthetic role, and a functional one. The corner segment adds a lot of openness to the design, preventing it from looking heavy. The curving shape and thick, comfortable seat and back cushions provide plenty of comfort, therefore this settee is perfect for cosy lounging.

Guillerme et Chambron’s work at Votre Maison not only represents the fusion of function and form, but also exemplifies the mid-century modern aesthetic - which they played a pivotal role in shaping. Their emphasis on quality craftsmanship and the use of noble materials like oak has undeniably left a lasting imprint in the world of furniture design, solidifying their legacy in the French design landscape during the mid-century era. Together, they defined new furnishings concepts. As this brilliant settee shows, well-crafted structures, polished wood and thick cushions created the now world-famous reputation of their seating designs.

About the Designer:

Robert Guillerme graduated in 1934 from the École Boulle where he excelled in architecture and furniture design. After the Second World War he moved to Lille, in the north of France, where he decorated homes and designed furniture for the well regarded Rogier workshops.

In 1948, Guillerme was joined by his long-time friend, decorator Jacques Chambron in Lille. The following year Guillerme and Chambron met master cabinetmaker Émile Dariosecq, owner of a woodworking shop and the company Votre Maison was born. Together, they defined and imposed a new furniture concept. Thanks to their distinctive creativity, originality, and quality, the Votre Maison quickly became well-known.

The Votre Maison marked the history of French design. Guillerme drew the furniture designs while Chambron played the part of salesman, welcoming and advising clients. The power duo was complemented by Dariosecq, whose workshop took charge of the manufacturing. Together, they defined new furnishings concepts. Well-crafted chair back, polished wood and thick cushions make the reputation of their armchairs and sofas. Votre Maison continued to produce furniture right into the 20th century, with Jacques’s son Hervé Chambron, a designer and graduate of the École Boulle, having taken the over in 1983. ~H.

The iconic “Soriana” three-seater sofa was designed by the Italian designer duo, Afra and Tobia Scarpa in 1969. Besides its innovative manufacturing, visually,Soriana brings sophisticated and leisurely comfort to any home.

This post-modern sofa was manufactured by Cassina as part of the eponymous line that reached the coveted ‘iconic’ title soon after its launch. The award-winning design features three front metal clamps by which all soft curves and loose leather upholstery are held together, a particularly original detail that creates a sense of barely contained softness. The Soriana collection was meant to express beauty and comfort by using a whole bundle of fabric held by chrome-plated steel clamps. The defining upholstered body features tufted buttons all over it, which visually sections the sofa, while also adding depth to accentuate the softness. The interesting pairing of the metal clamps with the luxurious dark fabric creates the nowadays especially coveted post-modern look. For all its casual overtures, this sofa model remains a statement piece — a true icon of contemporary, or just simply, design.

The “Soriana Chair” was the first piece designed in the collection, and for its design in 1970, it won the Compasso d'Oro, one of the most important design awards of that time. The design has been reissued by Cassina recently, with the aim of recovering and safeguarding the works of Afra and Tobia Scarpa.

About the designers:

Afra and Tobia Scarpa graduated at the Istituto Universitario di Architettura in Venice and formed one of the most successful and known professional associations. Their works can be found in museums across the USA and Europe, such as the MoMA and the Louvre. Their designs like the Soriana sofa exhibit a decidedly modernist aesthetic, prioritizing pared-back elegance and comfort. At the same time, the Scarpas are admired for the ease with which their designs complement both classical and cutting-edge interiors.

The Soriana was created for the Italian manufacturing company Cassina, which is often credited with introducing industrial design to Italy and has built an international reputation for collaborating with some of the world’s most respected designers, including Afra and Tobia Scarpa.

The husband-and-wife duo’s products played an important role in the history of Italian Design and are thriving in the Mid-Century market. The Soriana sofa is a collectors’ piece and part of the history of Italian design, destined to increase in value with the time. A piece of true Italian Modernism. ~H.

Throughout the 20th century, Italian design managed to distinguish itself. The 1960s was a boom time in Italy especially, a decade of mass production and innovation that signaled the end of the post-war rebuilding programme. Still, one off designs and the overflow of creativity were just as present, giving birth to outstanding pieces such as this modular “Superonda” sofa.

The “Superonda” sofa, designed in 1967 by the radical Florentine design collective Archizoom Associati, and produced for Poltronova, is a pioneering piece that challenged the conventions of traditional furniture design. The Superonda blurs the line between object and artwork, inviting interaction rather than passive use. It can serve as a sofa, a bed, or a chaise, making it as versatile as it is visually striking. Composed of two interlocking, elements, the Superonda departs from the conventional frames, legs, and backs, instead offering a sculptural, modular form that can be arranged in multiple ways. Its bold, wave-like silhouette reflects the playfulness of the Italian Radical Design movement, a rebellion against bourgeois taste and rigid functionalism.

Produced by Poltronova, a manufacturer known for championing avant-garde Italian design, the Superonda remains an unforgettable piece in design history. Its enduring relevance lies in its conceptual boldness, embodying the ideals of a generation that sought to redefine the relationship between people and their environments. Today, the Superonda stands not only as a collectible design icon but as a symbol of radical creativity and the power of design to question societal norms.

This rare sofa model was designed by Ingvar Stockum in 1965 for Futura Möbler, but was only in production for two years before it was discontinued as a result of high production costs. The design embodies the clean lines and minimalist aesthetic characteristic of the mid-century era, while also incorporating elements that ensure both comfort and style. Its silhouette is sleek and sophisticated, with a low profile that exudes a contemporary feel.

The designer’s fine sense of proportion, line tension and balance between the surfaces, and how skillfully he incorporated the heritage of traditional design, is evident in this sofa. The frame is constructed from wood, which offers durability and stability, while the generous cushioning ensures a comfortable seating experience. Throughout the 20th century, solid wood had been the most important furniture material in Europe. This is especially true for the mid-century, during which natural wood was a staple material to enhance both the structural and visual aspect of furniture, as is the case with this three-seater sofa. The striped upholstery complements the minimalist design and allows the sofa to blend seamlessly into various interior settings. The attention to detail in Stockum's design is evident in the well-proportioned structure and thoughtful use of materials. This piece not only reflects the craftsmanship and design ethos of the 1960s Scandinavian movement, but also serves as a timeless addition to any modern living space, combining form and function with enduring style.

Design-wise, this sofa is in the vein of Scandinavian modernism, with simplicity and functionality, while also showcasing the subtle details and quality mid-century design is known and appreciated for.

This model visually represents the very reason Votre Maison and Guillerme et Chambron significantly influenced French design history. From every angle, this sofa’s design has unique solutions that are unmistakable and blur the line between furniture and sculpture.

Featuring a solid oak frame with sharply angled arms, six legs, and vertical slat detailing along the backrest, this sofa is a hallmark of Guillerme et Chambron's structural language. The frame is striking through its composition, yet the look is enhanced even further thanks to the large, circular back cushions, which immediately draw the eye with their playful geometry. Like most of their designs, this sofa model displays a beautiful contrast between the wooden frame and the elegant light fabric of the seat and back cushions. The backrest - which is undoubtedly the main design element - consists of several spindles framed by oak rails on the top, sides and the bottom. The woodworking and joinery truly show the overall quality of this sofa, the frame is refined and the attention to the smallest detail shows the manufacturing skills of Guillerme et Chambron. The expert woodworking is especially visible in the armrests, their peculiar shape greatly adding to the visual interest of the sofa.

Guillerme et Chambron's work continues to resonate for its balance of charm, function, and artisan quality, all of which are on full display in this distinctive piece.

Henning Kjærnulf was a Danish mid-century designer and architect whose work is associated with the broader Scandinavian modern movement. Although relatively little is known about his personal biography, his furniture designs reveal a strong commitment to craftsmanship and carefully structured forms. Kjærnulf worked with several Danish manufacturers and developed pieces that combined traditional woodworking with modern lines and sculpted forms.

This two-seater sofa reflects those qualities through its solid oak frame and clearly defined architectural presence. The most striking feature is the wooden side and back panels that come together to form a frame for the piece. The frame acts as both a structural support and a visual boundary for the seating area. These panels give the sofa a grounded, natural feel through the deep grain of the oak. The upholstery contrasts with this structure through a layered composition. The seat, backrest, arms are covered in green textile, while the cushions are upholstered in a striped fabric that introduces rhythm across the surface. The pattern emphasizes the geometric shape of the sofa constructed on straight lines. The combination of exposed oak structure and patterned upholstery produces a clear dialogue between rigid frame and soft interior. At the same time, the carving details as well as the metal studs placed alongside the frame provide another dimension of interest, proving the complexity and attention to detail of the maker. 

Together, these elements create a piece that is both functional and visually distinctive. Through the use of different materials and balanced clarity of structure, this sofa offers a great example of mid-twentieth-century Nordic seating.
