CH100 Series Sofa

CH100 Sofa Series is a distinctive two, three or four-seater sofa that offers a combination of stainless steel, wood, foam and leather in a design with excellent comfort. There is a stainless steel frame in an unconventional design with an upholstered top made by traditional methods. The sofa’s inner wooden frame is padded after the best quality standards and the loose cushions are made with a foam core surrounded by down which makes them stable but, at the same time, soft. The stainless steel frame with a brushed surface with distinctive bends demonstrates the designer's understanding of how to also work with this material. In addition to the sofa, the series also consists of a lounge chair, as well as two coffee tables.

The CH100 Series was designed by Hans Wegner. Wegner is arguably the most important figure in Danish modern furniture design. Early in his life, Wegner apprenticed under a cabinetmaker and was eventually educated at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. In 1938, he worked on furniture for Arne Jacobsen and Erik Moller's Aarhus City Hall. By 1943, he opened his own design studio, where he would design some of his most famous works. The peacock chair was designed in 1947 for Johannes Hansen and thanks to innovations from designers such as Eames and Aalto, bent plywood shell chairs by Wegner began in 1948. Both the Wishbone and Round Chair were in introduced in 1949 and have since become two of his best recognized works. Over his career, Wegner designed over 500 different chairs and countless other pieces including tables and cabinets. The attention to joinery, craft, and material have helped to make his name so revered.
