so i was looking for more info on this heavy late 70's( according to the owner) couch and armchair I got as part of an estate and came across this ebay listing with this title and the first sentence or two in the description....I have not done any further research but just thought one or two might be interested in this attribution and the fact that such horrific fabric could be associated with the vodder name;)CADO Denmark Arne Vodder Mid-Century Teak 3 Seat Sofa Lounge Chair Scandinavian:You are purchasing a Arne Vodder 3 seater sofa model 162 and 1 Easy Lounge Chair in teak for Cado. Believed to be made in 1976 with wooden teak frame. Anyway, the first picture is the vodder couch? the rest show the couch I have that I am looking for info on if it looks familiar...rather identifiable end posts...thanks

In my humble opinion I found the design to have its merits as well and it does certainly reflect its time. In the city I live in the oatmeal is on most found furniture and it seems more a poly blend...we drown in it here and it dates even the most savvy design in my opinion but I certainly agree there are much worse fabrics and the glory of the oatmeal is certainly it's projected neutrality as well as it's ability to confuse the eye as to what is a nubby bit and what is an old food dribble bit.
Mostly I was surprised at the cado/vodder collaboration and thought some of us other neophytes might be as well
I don't have a clue about the designer, just wanted to chime in on the fabric. There are indeed a lot of cheesy, cheap fabrics that look like this, both in acrylic and the ubiquitous "Haitian cotton" that was so popular in the 70s. These fabrics are still so prevalent and so awful that they've ruined the quality fabric (the stuff with that same look) for a lot of people.
It always makes me think of how the general public doesn't understand the prices for Herman Miller shell chairs because they were so widely knocked off for institutional use. "I don't get why these go for $$$, they look like the chairs in my high school lunchroom!"
That kinda thing.
