Founder of Innovation LivingTM

Innovation Living™ was founded in 1971 in Denmark by Flemming Højfeldt. Inspired by his personal experience with the first production communities of the flower power generation, he started the company with a production of beanbags. At the end of the 1980s the desire to produce own design took over. Flemming was inspired by the successful Japanese futons, as well as the desire to create an independent brand with own original designs. This was the idea behind the successful sofa bed concept known as Innovation Living.
