Norwegian designer Andreas Engesvik has been a key figure in contemporary Scandinavian design and has played a pivotal role in shaping Fogia's collection. With a focus on balancing form and function, Engesvik's collaborations include popular pieces like the Lyra, Tiki, Bollo, and Barba designs. Each modern furniture silhouette offers distinct design elements and a strong emphasis on comfort.
The Lyra Armchair and Chaise Lounge, for example, combine soft padding and ergonomic angles to provide a comfortable seating experience. The lightweight canvas-wrapped steel frame allows for flexibility and mobility, while the upholstery options in leather or textiles offer a customizable aesthetic. The Bollo Collection, on the other hand, stands out for its blend of mid-century tubular frames with plush cushioning that envelops the metal structure. It includes a lounge chair, dining chair, and barstool, all designed for both comfort and efficient material use.
