SHEEPSKIN COLOR: MOONLIGHT Flemming Lassen Originally Ingeborg was designed in 1940 by Flemming Lassen. The chair was designed by Master carpenter Jakob Kjær, who manufactured Flemming Lassen’s furniture for The Carpenters guild Annual Furniture Exhibition. The charming little easy chair is named after Flemming and Mogens Lassen’s mother the artist Ingeborg Winding. Ingeborg is a perfect match for the new sofa, called Vilhelm. The sofa is named after the brothers´ father Hans Vilhelm Lassen who was a decorative artist. It’s a beautiful reunion of Vilhelm and Ingeborg. Despite its petite size, Ingeborg brightens any room with its charm and exclusive style. Ingeborg looks beautiful from all angles. It can be placed anywhere in a room without taking up too much space. FLEMMING LASSEN’S DESIGNS Flemming Lassen produced a number of rare and important pieces of furniture in the 1930s. It is furniture that unites a dedication to craftsmanship with a soft, almost naive style. This includes Flemming Lassen’s iconic, upholstered armchair ”The Tired Man”, the “Vilhelm” sofa, which are both from 1935, and also “Ingeborg”, which by Lassen is now relaunching. One common feature is the open wings, which is a characteristic feature that shows in all of Flemming Lassen’s chairs. They manage to be chubby, functional and sculptural at the same time. The dimensions emphasise why Flemming Lassen was one of the main forces behind functionalism in Denmark. He was responsible for the true functionalism, where functionality and design merge.
