Story
Made for the Oda Chair
Audo says the ottoman is designed for use with Arnold Madsen's Oda Chair but is equally purposeful alone, with the same careful craft and embracing form as the chair.
Built after a vintage version
The page explains that, as there are no drawings of the original design, the ottoman is constructed according to a vintage version.
