Description

Carl Hansen & Søn's BM0489L bench presents a fresh reinterpretation of the classic table bench, designed by Børge Mogensen in 1958. Versatility is at the very heart of the attractive oak bench – known as one of the greatest Danish designers, Mogensen often created furniture that can be easily adapted to changing life situations and different needs. The long BM0489 table bench can be used in the living room as a coffee table, in the bedroom as a bedside table or in the hallway as a bench for fastening your shoes. Only the sky – or rather your imagination and the walls of your home – is the limit!

The graceful table bench is not only suitable for many uses but also for a wide range of different interiors, from Scandinavian minimalist to slightly more maximalist. This is thanks to beautiful details: the oak frame is accompanied by a braided paper cord top and finished with skilful joinery and rounded edges.

Børge Mogensen

Danish furniture designer Børge Mogensen (1914 –1972) was one of the most influential designers of the Danish modern. Mogensen studied furniture design at Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, and his designs aimed at functionality, minimalist appearance and easy accessibility. Soon after his graduation Mogensen was named the chief of Danish Consumers’ Co-operative Society FDB, which focused on producing functional, durable and affordable furniture for all social classes.

Mogensen’s designs were often extremely modest and confident at the same time, and the same goes for his personality. Mogensen preferred to work with traditional and natural materials, but also liked to experiment with new techniques and supported the industrial production of furniture. His work was also influenced by folk art, lithography and Japanese wood carvings. During his career Mogensen was awarded with the Eckersberg Medal and C.F. Hansen Medal, and in 1972 he was named Honorary Royal Designer for Industry by the British Royal Society of Arts.
