With around 5,000 entries from more than 50 countries each year, the Red Dot Award is one of the world’s largest international product competitions. All products are assessed individually by an international jury of around 40 experts. With a modular design, offering the customer to choose height, width, number of seats and several colour options, the IKEA HAVSTEN outdoor sofa is designed to be functional and meet the various needs of outdoor environments.
“‘I wanted to design a sofa with a light and visible construction, where all materials are detachable. The construction details in metal gives HAVSTEN its design expression”, says Andreas Fredriksson, Designer at IKEA.
