TWO | Scandinavian Modern Armchairs by Yngve Ekström for Swedese | Beech and Upholstery
A poised, architectural pairing where tension and softness are held in careful balance.
Designed by Yngve Ekström and produced by Swedese in Sweden during the 1970s, these armchairs reflect the designer’s mature modernist language, defined by clarity, proportion, and an intuitive understanding of how the body occupies space. Formed in black stained beech, the circular frame and radiating vertical spindles create a continuous structural loop, both enclosing and supporting the sitter. Upholstered seat and back cushions in red introduce warmth against the dark timber, reinforcing Ekström’s belief that comfort and visual discipline are not opposing ideas. Read together, the chairs carry a graphic presence, equally suited to considered residential interiors or design led commercial settings.
Measures: 67 cm W × 55 cm D × 77 cm H
