Akantus sofa by Swedese, designed by Yngve Ekström
The light wood frame, simple, straightforward design, sleek, and unfussy detailing such as the addition of the iconic vertical orientation of the side cushions that feel both Swedish and Japanese concurrently. We refer to this style colloquially as "Japandi".
This sofa features a very light toned, structurally stable beech wood frame and six leather cushions with naturally developed patina. We love the mix of darker cushions adjacent to the lighter wood tone; the combination allows the introduction of rosewood, teak and pine, easily for a Scandinavian Organic Modern palette.
Easy integration to Midcentury Modern spaces as well as those that feature other leather pieces of other styles and eras. A low slung pair of French club chairs would create the perfect mix.
