Product Information
Description
All meandering shape and classic finishes, the asymmetric Sideways Sofa has a clear purpose: to encourage conversation and closeness in the age of the screen. “Many sofas require you to sit straight and turn your head to the side instead of turning to face each other," explains designer Rikke Frost. "I wanted to create a sofa where you sit sideways as this encourages more natural conversation.”
While its distinctive shape sets it apart from all of the current sofas in the Carl Hansen & Son archive, its classic use of wood makes it a natural fit for the Scandinavian brand that has become a global example of traditional carpentry.

Price Promise
Our Price Promise
We know that price is important. And while all of our designs follow the recommended retail prices (RRP) from our suppliers, we’re determined never to be bested.
It’s why we decided to introduce our Chaplins Price Promise. A guarantee to try and match the price of a branded product should you find it on sale at another authorised UK retailer. While the offer only applies to new designs (rather than clearance, outlets or ex-display) it’s our way of showing that we don’t just offer the best in service or style, but are committed to competitive pricing, too.
Please click on the button below should you wish to query a price. If a competitor's offer isn't immediately apparent online, we may ask you to supply us with a written quotation from the retailer — just to confirm the details.
And remember, Chaplins newsletter subscribers get an exclusive first order discount when they sign up. All of the details of which you can find in the footer below.
