The EJ800 sofa, designed by Foersom & Hiort-Lorenzen, is a testament to timeless elegance and exceptional comfort. It is distinguished by its minimalist design and clean lines that blend harmoniously into various spaces. In addition, its structure allows you to easily change the backrest, thus achieving an original sofa, adapting to your needs. Production was limited to a small number of units, mainly for Bang & Olufsen. With its robust structure and high-quality upholstery, the EJ800 sofa is not only an aesthetically appealing piece of design, but also a luxurious experience for those who enjoy it. The arrangement of the modules makes it possible to adapt this sofa to individual needs and preferences. The structure is very robust and sturdy, made of chrome-plated steel tubing. The black leather upholstery in the upper part and in durable fabric in the rest of the sofa is an undeniable symbol of Danish elegance and sophistication, which contrasts with the playful shape of the seat.
