An iconic example of dutch mid-century modernism, this 3-seat sofa designed by kho liang ie for artifort in the 1960s is a masterclass in refined, functional elegance. Combining clean lines with superior craftsmanship, the piece exemplifies kho liang ie’s visionary design ethos, which helped define artifort’s aesthetic during the postwar design renaissance. This particular model features three generously proportioned seat and back cushions, upholstered in a textured charcoal-grey fabric that beautifully complements the sleek, polished metal frame. The minimalist silhouette is balanced by thoughtful details—subtle tufting on the cushions and artifort’s signature slatted support structure beneath the seat give it both visual interest and structural integrity. Perfect as a sofa in a modern living room, office lounge, or gallery space, it also serves wonderfully as a statement bench in larger interiors. The piece is incredibly versatile—its low profile, elegant presence, and neutral tones allow it to pair effortlessly with a wide range of styles, from mid-century and contemporary to minimalist and eclectic settings.
kho liang ie was a leading figure in postwar dutch design, celebrated for his pure, architectural forms and lasting influence on artifort’s identity. His work remains highly collectible and sought-after by design enthusiasts and connoisseurs worldwide.
