Description

Sweeping curves shape the Swan Sofa into a distinctive two-seat form, with a continuous silhouette that avoids straight edges and creates a soft, enveloping appearance. Arne Jacobsen introduced the design in 1958 for the suites, lounges, and panoramic restaurant of Copenhagen’s SAS Royal Hotel, where his work extended across the building’s furniture and interior elements. The sofa features a fully upholstered body available in textile or leather, with supportive foam construction that follows the contours of the seat and back. A satin-brushed aluminum shaker base provides a stable foundation while complementing the rounded upholstery. Its compact two-seat configuration makes it suitable for lounges, reception areas, and private seating spaces.

Designer

Arne Jacobsen

"The fundamental factor is proportion,” said this icon of Danish design and minimalist style shortly before his death in 1971. Though trained as an architect (and he abhorred being called a designer), Arne Jacobsen perhaps is most remembered today for his furniture, lighting and household objects. His 3-legged Ant Chair (1951) inspired by a Charles Eames plywood chair was an instant classic and led to other sculptural furnishings such as the Egg Chair and Swan seating series.

Born in 1902, he originally trained as a bricklayer before studying at the Royal Danish Academy of Arts. Visiting the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Art Decoratifs in Paris, he was forever influenced by the modernists Le Corbusier and Mies van der Rohe. A major figure in Danish architecture, Arne Jacobsen’s more memorable products include the 1960s Cylinda line of bar and table goods for Stelton, acclaimed with numerous international design awards.
