The new Fri sofa is about sharing this comfort with others says designer Jaime Hayon – Fritz Hansen

When Jaime Hayon created the Fri™ lounge chair and stool, he looked to embody openness, softness and simplicity in a comfortable design with a sculptural aesthetic. Together with Fritz Hansen, the renowned Spanish artist-designer expands the series with the 2.5-seater Fri™ sofa, offering maximum comfort in a minimalist design that effortlessly meets the needs of small and large spaces alike.

Embracing in its curves and indulgent in its comfort, the new 2.5-seater Fri creates an inviting lounge setting together with the corresponding Fri lounge chair. Set on a wooden base or aluminium legs, the shell and seat are crafted in moulded foam for a superior sitting experience shaped to the contours of the body. The backrest in cut foam provides both support and comfort. Fitting seamlessly into any setting – from homes to hotels and office headquarters – Fri lends beauty to every environment thanks to its honest, open, timeless expression.

 

 

“The Fri is such a comfortable classic. The new Fri sofa is about sharing this comfort with others.” says designer Jaime Hayon.

Offered in the same upholstery as the rest of the Fri series, the sofa is also available with two new Designer Selection programmes of premium textiles in distinctive colourways and fabric pairings curated by Jaime Hayon. “The Fri Sofa is a versatile and sculptural statement piece that offers a comfortable retreat for easy conversations in an open and optimistic design,” says Christian Andresen, Head of Design at Fritz Hansen on the new addition to the series.
