Model presented at The Copenhagen Cabinetmakers' Guild Exhibition at Designmuseum Danmark, 1935. Literature: Grete Jalk [ed.]: “40 Years of Danish Furniture Design”, vol. 1, p. 217.

Flemming Lassen worked together with various cabinetmakers in the mid 1930s. Here he presented his modern, organic and overstuffed furniture at the annual Cabinetmakers' Guild Exhibitions. The two cabinetmakers Jacob Kjær and A.J. Iversen, both considered as first among equals and otherwise heavily influenced by the 18th century English furniture tradition, would be Lassen's partners for his most iconic pieces. This rare sofa is probably the best sofa he designed and yet it has remained more or less unknown. As with his “Tired Man Chair”, the sofa takes a basic form and stretches it into something sculptural.
