Story
Rediscovered in the archive
Flemming Lassen designed the Ingeborg Sofa in 1940, but Audo states that it was never widely produced. The manufacturer later rediscovered the design and recreated it from the original sketches.
A wider Ingeborg form
The 160 cm-wide sofa has characteristic armrests in a 2.5-seat format with a buttoned back and wooden legs. Audo presents it as the counterpart to the chair, while the sofa’s own width, upholstery range and seat capacity define this separate product.
