3 seater sofa designed by Gubi for Illum WikkelsoThe Croissant Sofa by midcentury Danish architect and designer Illum Wikkelso was created with the belief that a sofa was not just for sitting upright, but that it should be comfortable no matter the angle at which you sit.
The sofa features a base-frame and legs, with a slight front-to-back downward tilt and curved detail. Its horsehoe curve backrest enables alternative sitting and lying positions. The powerful and contemporary design of the Croissant Sofa is true to Wikkelsos inspiration from the classic and elegant club member-styled lounge chairs

Best furniture in town. Go check out pieces from Finn Juhl, especially the chieftain chair!

My fiancée and I were searching for modern furniture pieces that not only look beautiful but also are practical. Danish Design ticked all the boxes - superb comfort and aesthetics value, a decent variety of different furniture lines, and staff who are willing to take their time to explain the pieces to you. For many of their sofa lines, they have a wide array of different fabrics (and colours) to suit your lifestyle (eg, warmer or cooler materials). We ended up getting a Bolia couch and a Skovby dining table - wish we had gotten more! Definitely will return again

Great selection of furniture (there are some avail online and not in-store which they can order for you). Got our lights and sofa from here. Staff was very helpful in providing advice on material selection, customization and styling.
