The only real sofa - or at least the sofa with the number 1 is brand new to me from today. Børge Mogensen designed it as early as 1955, which by the way is the year my mum was born, so a good vintage if you ask her and me...
Sofa no. 1 was the first sofa series that design director Mogensen designed for the Fredericia label, and it was the beginning of a close collaboration.
Mogensen gave the sofa no. 1 his masterful feeling for materials and proportions, emphasizing the horizontal and vertical lines with clear angular armrests. The tightly upholstered wooden frame is softened by loose, interchangeable, buttoned cushions.
All this is in keeping with Mogensen's ambition to create functional furniture that enriches people's everyday lives.
Now it's your turn to make the sofa your very own number 1: The sofa is available as a 2- or 3-seater. There are many variations for the colour of the frame and the cover.
