Rooted in Kaare Klint’s modular, and mathematical philosophies, the designs were intended to work singularly, in series, or in combination with open shelving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe design offered is constructed in solid and veneered teak, with internal lining and drawers contrasting in birch. The brass handles, locks and hinges are made to exacting standards reflected through the recessed hinges and custom made keys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe overall aesthetic is reduced to a simple and discrete case on bracketed leg. The brass door handles recall historical Chinese furniture, which was a strong influence on Danish designers of the period. The open shelving and drawers within provide a range of functions for both clothing or plates and tableware.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMogensen trained as a cabinetmaker in 1934 and went on to graduate as an architect being mentored by the eminent and influential Kaare Klint at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Copenhagen in 1942. He acted as head of design at FDB (Danish Co-op) and established his own office in 1950.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorge Mogensen created simple and functional furniture designs. His furniture designs are acknowledged for a thorough and detailed approach to the understanding of scale, ergonomics and purpose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlongside Jacobsen and Wegner, his work gained international respect and Mogensen was awarded Honorary Royal Design for Industry in London in 1970.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions:\u003cbr\u003e 122w x 45d x 93cmh\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hille","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":20769670889583,"sku":"991068","price":2600.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0032\/4966\/8207\/products\/Mogensen_cabinet_02_0.jpg?v=1571711858","url":"https:\/\/www.twentytwentyone.mom\/products\/cabinet-for-cm-madsen-1955","provider":"twentytwentyone","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
