Product description

The OW149-2 Colonial Sofa was designed by Ole Wanscher in 1964. Manufactured in very small quantities, the design was virtually unknown until Carl Hansen & Søn launched the entire Colonial Series in 2015.

The OW149-2 Colonial Sofa designed by Ole Wanscher is a trademark interpretation of classic shapes according to modern needs for functionality. The name and styling of the sofa reflect Wanscher’s fascination with 18th century English furniture design, which was often inspired by styles and materials used in the colonies.

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.
