Japan Sofa 2-seater is a sofa from the Japan series designed in 1957 by Finn Juhl. Unlike many of Finn Juhl's earlier pieces, the Japan Sofa 2-seater and the other pieces in the series are characterized by sublime simplicity. Inspired by traditional Japanese woodwork, this 2-seater sofa was designed. The horizontal backrest rests on slightly tapered legs and is a reference to the doors of Japanese temples. The backrest has a circular detail at the ends that adds an optically elegant touch. This is typical of Finn Juhl's design, and he said that "the differences are in the details". Despite the sofa's simple design, Finn Juhl sticks to his idea of emphasizing the difference between the upholstered and the caged elements by separating the backrest from the upholstered part with a mesh base. Japan Sofa 2-seater is made of oak or walnut and has a hand-sewn fabric cover.

Japan Sofa 2-seater and the other furniture in the series are the result of a collaboration between Finn Juhl and furniture manufacturer France & Son. The aim of the furniture series was that the furniture would lend itself well to mass production while fitting the ideals of the 1950s. In 2007, House of Finn Juhl launched the Japan Sofa 2-seater and the other furniture in the series.
