BY FLEMMING LASSEN 1935

VILHELM

Flemming Lassen’s padded sofa from

1935 is named after his father, the sign

painter Hans Vilhelm Lassen.

The beautiful Vilhelm sofa, launched in 2020, is a padded three-seater created originally

for the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild Exhibition in 1936. The sofa’s soft curves and

taut expression are characteristic of Flemming Lassen’s style. The Danish architect was able

to balance the minimalist with the voluminous in designs that challenged the industry.
