Sofa by Josef Frank

Imagine how this sofa must have looked like in an 1920s living room! It is designed by Josef Frank an Austrian-born architect, artist, and designer who adopted Swedish citizenship in the latter half of his life. Even almost 50 years after his death, his contemporary furniture pieces, prints and curtains are absolutely desirable. You can still buy most of the furniture and prints, although they are quite expensive.

Here a small selection of his work
