Fried Egg

Fried Egg
Unique asymmetrical armchair, designed by the renowned Danish architect Hans Olsen. Fried Egg is rooted in the Danish modernism of the 50s and caters to design lovers who want to add edge to the home in the form of extraordinary design furniture with both personality and whimsy. Due to Fried Egg's characteristic shape, the spacious as well as graceful chair has been nicknamed the Mirror Bed, because this is exactly what the chair reminds of when the design is viewed from above. The flat armrest invites you to casually swing your legs up on the edge if you really want to relax. For the greatest possible flexibility in the interior, Fried Egg is now available both right- and left-facing, depending on where you want it to fall on the armchair. At the same time, it opens up for furnishing a lounge corner with two armchairs that relate symmetrically and mirror each other and invite long conversations. As a tribute to the 50s' joy of color and love for teak, Fried Egg is produced in this elegant type of wood and with upholstery in a number of carefully selected colors from the Warm Nordic universe.

DESIGNER
Hans Olsen
Hans Olsen (1919-1992) left his own mark on 1950s Danish modernism with his well-rounded furniture with personality. Several design classics from the hand of the Danish architect are today collectors' icons and are sold for high bids at international auctions. Here, Hans Olsen illustrates how the iconic Fried Egg chair with its distinctive design invites you to throw your legs nonchalantly over the side of the chair.
