Presented for the first time at the 1958 Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild Furniture Exhibition, the BM0865 Daybed has been relaunched into the modern-day. Crafted from sustainably sourced Oak, its elegant cabinetry joints, elongated legs, and robust construction, pay respect to the heritage of Mogensen’s exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail.
Upholstered in soft-to-the-touch Kvadrat fabric, its playful profile provides the utmost comfort, enhanced by its beautifully shaped back cushion and headrest. Ideally utilised in a living room, bedroom, or open-plan space, this striking piece brings a touch of style to your home and is the perfect place to relax after a long day.
Borge Mogensen (1914–1972) started his career as a cabinetmaker in 1934.
In 1936 he went on to study at the Copenhagen School of Arts and Crafts under Professor Kaare Klint before entering the Royal Academy of Fine Arts from where he graduated as an architect in 1942. He became head of design at FDB (the Danish co-op) in 1942 before establishing his own design office in 1950.
