A merry mix of Scandinavian design, IKEA style

The idea of working with Danish designers was born in the early 1950s, when traditional furniture retailers in Sweden urged furniture factories to boycott IKEA, whose low prices were seen as a threat.

The boycott created a lot of problems for IKEA, but it also forced it to innovate. IKEA founder Ingvar Kamprad turned to Denmark, a furniture nation. He visited furniture fairs there and made contacts with suppliers. One of the products he found was ESBJERG. The armchair was designed by Danish architect Thomas Harlev, and also came as a two-seater sofa. It was launched in the 1957 IKEA catalogue, and Thomas Harlev was described as one of a group of Danish architects who could not only design exclusive pieces, but also think economically.

ESBJERG appeared in the IKEA catalogue until 1964, but was resurrected in the late 2010s as EKENÄSET. Today it is described as a piece of furniture that conveys a stylish retro vibe, inspired by 1950s Scandinavian design.
