Danish designer Ib Kofod Larsen was an architect and furniture designer. His mid-century modern furniture designs were popular in his day, and they're currently seeing a resurgence in popularity (and expense!) 9 years after his death. Here's a peek at our favorites from Kofod Larsen:
Kofod Larsen was one of the most influential designers for England's G-Plan furniture maker. Some of his designs could be taken for minimalist contemporary pieces being designed today (like the sideboard pictured third in the gallery above).
Shown above:
1) Lounge chair for Christensen & Larsen, 1950s
2) The Elizabeth sofa and chair, 1956
3) Sideboard manufactured by Faarup, 1960s
4) Mahogany and brass arm chair, 1950s
5) Scandinavian Sofa

Gorgeous! I love Norwegian Modernism from Aalto to Koolhaas. That northern climate really brings out the creative juices.
umm, yes. this guy's stuff rocks. too bad so many people think so. i'd like to buy one of his pieces some day.
I found the brass and mahogany chair at an ARC thrift store for.....get this $4.99. Yes, crazy I know. I didn't know who the designer was when I saw the chair, but thought it looked cool. I just recently saw it for sale at a retro consignment store for $975.00. It is a really great looking chair and I love it.
@Imserious, you'd be surprised what you can find on Craig's List.
