70 Foersom & Hiort-Lorenzen’s Flamingo was launched at The Furniture Fair at Bella Center in 2003 and has proven to be a very popular chair in a very short time for business and homes alike. The chair is a curved shell balanced on a slim wire foot. Flamingo with the delicate outlines is an example of the very best that modern upholstering technique has to offer. The shells of the seat and back are inordinately slender and sharply outlined. The development of moulded selfsupporting units has made it possible to fasten the seat and back elements to a light frame and create a strong chair with an elegant appearance. Flamingo has a fresh and modern appeal with subtle references to the wing span of a bird. EJ 205 Flamingo Design: Johannes Foersom & Peter Hiort-Lorenzen, MDD 71

72 EJ 220 · 270 Design: Erik Jørgensen Med sine smalle armlæn og relativt lave højde har Erik Jørgensens EJ 220 en let, blød og skødesløs fremtoning. De store, fyldige hynder udstråler overskud, komfort og hjemlig hygge. En af de ting, der optog Erik Jørgensen i de sene 1960’ere, var, hvordan man kunne redefinere sofaens formsprog og gøre det populære dagligstuemøbel til en æstetisk nydelse med god komfort. Resultatet af Erik Jørgensens overvejelser blev kassesofaen EJ 220, som siden sin introduktion i 1970 har dannet skole for sofadesigns i Danmark. The narrow armrests and relatively low height give Erik Jørgensen’s EJ 220 a light, soft and casual appearance. The big voluminous cushions signal abundance, comfort and a feeling of hominess. One of the challenges that preoccupied Erik Jørgensen in the late 1960s was how to redefine the design of sofas and turn the popular living room piece of furniture into an aesthetic visual experience with a high level of comfort. The result of Erik Jørgensen’s contemplations was the box sofa EJ 220, which was introduced in 1970 and has since founded a school for how sofas are designed in Denmark. 73
