SWAN SOFA™

The Swan sofa™ was made as a special model for the furnishing of suites, lounges and the panoramic restaurant at the SAS hotel in 1958. The sofa was in production from 1964-1974 and was reintroduced in 2000. The characteristic 3-dimensional shape contains no straight lines but is based on curves like the Egg™ and the Swan™.


ARNE JACOBSEN 1902-1971 The cooperation between Arne Jacobsen and Fritz Hansen dates back to 1934. But it was in 1952 the break-through came with the Ant™. It was succeeded by the Series 7™ in 1955. This propelled his and Fritz Hansen’s names into furniture history. Arne Jacobsen was very productive both as an architect and as a designer. At the end of the 50s Arne Jacobsen designed the Royal Hotel in Copenhagen, and for that project the Egg™, the Swan™, the Swan™ sofa and Series 3300™. Arne Jacobsen was and is an admired and outstanding designer. While the significance of Arne Jacobsen’s buildings was less appreciated, his furniture and other design work have become national and international heritage.
