Ernst & Jensen
In Duplo is a brilliant sofa series by the design duo Ernst & Jensen. The series includes three different sofa versions, each incarnating a unique story and revolving around the axis of retro aesthetics. In Duplo Low is cool, laid-back nostalgia a so cool, in fact, that In Duplo received Wallpaperas Design Award in 2011. In Duplo High seems more grown up a like a patient parent dealing with an inquisitive teenager a calmer, more mature. But despite this mature expression, In Duplo High still has edge and nerve, which is underscored by its upholstery. In Duplo Extra High almost evokes the sound of a chugging steam train when you take a seat. Like a time capsule, the tall back shields your body, creating a calm zone for a time-out. The In Duplo series flirts with the past but defines the present as part of the future a like an unscratched gramophone record in digital surround sound.
