One of Massproductions’ most recognisable collection Dandy, was launched in 2015. Massproductions Designer-in-Chief asked himself  “How do we want to sit?” and “How do we want to move in a room?”. The answer to the questions was the Dandy! 

“We see rectangular sofas everywhere, so we were inspired by this almost forgotten form”

– Magnus Elebäck,
DESIGNER IN CHIEF

Storr in the colour Coal

The name Dandy refers to the concept that emerged in the 18th century, where a dandy is a middle-class man who, with a certain extravagance in his clothes and appearance, wants to convey a sense of fine taste and elegance. The Dandy Collection expresses certain values associated with the dandy – elegance, panache, beauty and a relaxed attitude.

“With Dandy we wanted to encourage playfulness in how we furnish rooms, homes and public spaces. Magnus found a sofa from the 30’s at an auction that had a nice rounded shape.”

– Chris Martin,
Designer in Chief
