Swedish furniture designer Alf Svensson (1929-1992) was particularly active from the 1950s through the 1970s, creating storage furniture, tables and seating for several influential brands. Information about Svensson is scarce, and while it is clear that his work encompasses many different areas of furniture design, his seating furniture is the most common in the vintage market.

In the 1950s, like many of his Swedish and Scandinavian contemporaries, Svensson used traditional materials such as richly grained teak and rosewood and leather to create pieces designed in the purest modern Scandinavian style. These include the Contour Lounge Chair (1950s) and Te-Ve Chair (1953) for Ljungs Industrier, the Congo Easy Chair (1954) for Haga Fors, the modular Domus 1 Chair (1955) for Dux, originally designed for the H55 exhibition in Helsinborg, Sweden, and a high-back recliner (1957) for Fritz Hansen.
Svensson also designed tables for Tingströms, lighting for Bergboms and storage furniture for Bjästa.
