Sideways Sofa

A Plea for Downtime and Dialogue. 

The Sideways Sofa by Carl Hansen & Søn is an invitation to dialogue at a time when digital devices are challenging our traditional ways of conversation. Created by award-winning Danish designer Rikke Frost, the Sideways Sofa – true to its name – is designed for a sideways position that encourages a more natural conversation. Classic in its use of materials and contemporary in its form, the Sideways Sofa offers wonderful comfort, so that you are happy to stay seated – whether for an exciting conversation or a relaxing downtime. The quality of the Sideways sofa is rooted in the DNA of Carl Hansen & Søn, where uncompromising craftsmanship and thoughtful expression merge seamlessly.  

The Sideways Sofa by Rikke Frost combines classic materials – wood, paper cord and high-quality upholstery textiles – with a modern, asymmetrical shape. The steam-curved backrest is moulded from solid wood and woven paper cord, giving it a light, elegant expression, while the seat and backrest are upholstered for optimum comfort. A choice of fabrics and colours for the upholstery ensures that the Sideways Sofa fits perfectly into your own living room concept.
