Anne-Mette Jensen and Morten Ernst have designed the In Duplo sofa
series for the Danish furniture
manufacturer Erik Jørgensen.
In Duplo is a series that consist of two sofas in kinship (In Duplo
High & Low) that are designed with a common theme. Each sofa
consists of a wing shaped corpus that holds a composition of
cushions. Like in a stone circle where each element is modified and
finds its natural bearing. In Duplo comes across as a semiotic sign
and with a strong graphic and organic expression that lead the
thoughts back to the new modernism in Danish Furniture Design in the
early 1950’s. In Duplo High and Low both have a dynamic gable
expression and calm straight facades. The legs, made of powder
coated aluminium, look like limber bridges under the organic body.
