The Republic of Fritz Hansen has recently launched FAVN, a new sofa designed by Jaime Hayon. FAVN (Danish for Embrace) is the result of a creative dialogue between Jaime Hayon and Fritz Hansen.
"FAVN is an evolution of Fritz Hansen's design language that brings together the qualities of Spanish and Danish design," said Jaime Hayon. "FAVN is picking up from the long tradition of Arne Jacobsen in the sense that I wanted to create a form that was based on a shell, like the Egg and the Swan which looks equally beautiful from all angles."
The sofa is available in a wide range of colors: light grey, sage green, beige, taupe, chocolate, mustard, red, violet, dark blue and black. Each FAVN includes a mix of three fabrics to express the form of its three main components; the shell, seat and back and decorative cushions.
