Fridene Swivel Armchair by Carina Bengs for IKEA, 2000s

The Fridene swivel armchair, designed by Carina Bengs for IKEA in the early 2000s, features a sculptural bentwood frame paired with generously upholstered seat and back cushions. The chair’s compact proportions and integrated swivel base offer both comfort and functionality, while the exposed wood structure adds a warm, architectural character. A refined example of contemporary Scandinavian design, balancing modern ergonomics with a nod to classic bentwood traditions.
