The OW149-2 Colonial Sofa designed by Ole Wanscher is a trademark interpretation of classic shapes according to modern needs for functionality. With its flexible shapes and slim dimensions, the sofa’s style reflects Wanscher’s fascination with 18th-century English furniture design.
The design communicates Wanscher’s fondness for refined detailing. The OW149-2 Colonial Sofa features a relatively simple lattice construction, its elements supporting one another. The slender dimensions are minimal, the design’s strength achieved instead through a well-conceived structure that includes double center legs for strength.
The sofa is as a reimagination of his popular OW149 Colonial Chair from 1949 and is part of the Colonial Series, which also features the OW449 Colonial Coffee Table and the OW149F Colonial Footstool.
