The Canvas Chair

'The Canvas Chair' is a perfect example of designer Børge Mogensen's design philosophy, where the furniture in all its simplicity achieves its iconic status precisely on the informal design language, made of materials of the highest quality. 'The Canvas Chair' was created as an antidote to the trendy and flashy furniture of the 60s, which is one of the reasons why the down-to-earth and versatile design is still a classic in many homes around the world.

Børge Mogensen shows his love of nature and organic elements through his choice of chair materials. With a solid wood frame, particularly characterised by its perpendicular lines, Mogensen frames the chair with a strong character that is also well-proportioned to ensure the unique lounge feel found in many of the popular designer's furniture. The seat and backrest consist of two pieces of canvas stretched over the wooden frame to create an organic harmony between the two materials. Despite its simplicity, 'The Canvas Chair' is an eye-catching piece of furniture that will fill any room with its informal charm.
