DescriptionDescription: Honken is a combined armchair and mini sofa. The shape is reminiscent of an ice hockey goal turned upside down and the title refers to goalkeeper Leif “Honken” Holmqvist (born 1942), who played in the Swedish national team in 1965–1975. Thomas Bernstrand designed the furniture in an experimental design process together with Stefan Borselius and Johan Lindau at the Blå Station company. The task was to design a “classic”.
