Memorable Tord Björklund 'Polhem' Sofa by Ikea
The 'Polhem' sofa is an inspired architectural offering that perfectly combines bold curvaceous armrests and interesting structural details. The graphic crossed rods supporting the legs give this sofa a robust and memorable lightness of form. Not just a stunning piece from every angle, this one is also dangerously comfortable.
