Andreas Engesvik and Daniel Rybakken’s Arbour sofa embodies the concept that design should follow construction. The sofa is constructed from separate components that have been independently produced to optimize comfort, quality, and efficiency. Its development was guided by the goal of creating a durable piece of furniture that would meet the criteria for the Nordic Swan Ecolabel within the European market. The frame is crafted from FSC-certified wood, and the upholsteries are EU-Ecolabelled for the Eco version.
The sofa’s seat and cushions are carefully proportioned for optimal comfort, with identical side cushions that provide a sense of harmony and allow for multiple comfortable sitting or lying positions. The frame has a strong, elegant profile with an architectural quality. Arbour’s logical construction and uncluttered design language combine to create a distinctly Scandinavian aesthetic, while maintaining great comfort and durability. The Atlas, Remix, Surface By Hay, Fiord, Steelcut, Steelcut Trio, Melange Nap, Divina, Divina Md, Divina Melange, Re-Wool, Canvas, Hallingdal, Lila, Raas, and Vidar textiles are EU-Ecolabelled and approved for the Nordic Swan Ecolabelled Arbour.
This product is crafted from sustainably sourced materials with a lower environmental impact than conventional alternatives.
