Carl Hansen RF1904 Sideways Lounge Chair
The RF1904 Sideways Lounge Chair, designed by Rikke Frost for Carl Hansen & Søn, combines sculptural design with thoughtful ergonomics. Created as part of Frost’s “Sideways Series”, the chair explores new ways of sitting by encouraging relaxed, sideways seating positions that support conversation and informal interaction.
The design brings together a solid wood frame with an upholstered seat and backrest, creating a balanced composition of natural materials and soft comfort. The curved wooden armrest and open frame allow the chair to be approached and used from different angles, giving it both functional flexibility and a distinctive visual identity.
