With its design rooted in Danish modernism, this spacious yet comforting lounge chair was playfully christened ‘Fried Egg’ because of its appearance from above. Its asymmetrical design means the user can swing their legs over the right-hand armrest, creating a unique sense of comfort and multiple seating positions.
The frame is produced from the highest quality teak and is upholstered in warming sheepskin in a choice of two stunning finishes, ideal for pulling up to the wood burner on a chilly night or for reading your newest book on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
Hans Olsen’s remarkable designs from the 1950s are vivid examples of the beautiful diversity of Danish Modernism. This Danish architect and industrial designer took on the classic virtues of the Academy of Fine Arts and the great master, Kaare Klint, but opted for a more playful and experimental approach to furniture design.
Hans Olsen challenged contemporary production methods and much of his inspiration came from the opportunities offered by moulding wood. A refusal to compromise in terms of comfort, functionality and aesthetics is Hans Olsen’s trademark, and his iconic design attracts just as much attention today as it did back then. Designs such as Warm Nordic's Fried Egg Lounge Chair are among Olsen's classic works.
