BØRGE MOGENSEN (Denmark, 1914 - 1972). Three-seater sofa model 2212, 1970s. Beech wood legs and brown leather upholstery. Upholstery with wear and some missing parts. It shows marks of use and wear. Needs to be reworked. Measurements: 76 x 221 x 80 cm. Sofa 2212 by Børge Mogensen combines Danish design with a modest aesthetic of remarkable sophistication. Originally, the sofas designed by Børge Mogensen were intended to furnish his own home, but soon became an icon of 20th century design. The generous proportions and cushions upholstered in fabric or leather provide exceptional comfort for the user. The armrests, meanwhile, feature a distinctive shape, characteristic of the 22 collection, reflected in a slight curve, higher at the back and giving the sofa a modern, timeless look. The seat, back and side cushions are completely detachable from the frame. Børge Mogensen was one of the most prominent representatives of the generation of designers who gave birth to the Danish design concept that is now known worldwide. He began his career as a cabinetmaker in 1934, and two years later began his studies at the Copenhagen School of Arts and Crafts, where he was taught by Kaare Klint. He then entered the Royal Academy of Fine Arts, graduating as an architect in 1942. That same year he began working as design director for FDB, finally setting up on his own in 1950. Functional is the word that best describes Mogensen's design; most of his creations were conceived for industrial production, and are characterized by solid, simple lines, studied almost scientifically to be as functional as possible. His clean and highly functional aesthetic resulted in affordable and practical designs, his favorite material being wood. His client portfolio includes Fredericia Stolefabrik, Fritz Hansen and Søborg Møbelfabrik, among others. Notable projects include Spokeback Sofa (1945) and Spanish Chair (1959), as well as a variety of shelving and storage designs. He was honored with the Eckersberg Medal in 1950, the Copenhagen Joinery Guild's annual award in 1953 and the C.F. Hansen Medal in 1972.

HARRY BERTOIA (Italy, 1915 - USA, 1978). Set of four "Side Bertoia" chairs, ca. 1960. Steel rods. Measurements: 74 x 46 x 56 cm. Drawing on his experience as head of the Experimental Department at the Eames Studio, Harry Bertoia designed the Side chair for Knoll International in 1952. A single piece of steel rod forms the seat and back, joined to a lightweight steel frame that forms the base. The visible structure of the Side model suggests that the chairs were objects in space, and as Bertoia said, "space passes through them". A painter, graphic artist, sculptor, university professor and furniture designer, Harry Bertoia emigrated to the United States at the age of fifteen, and it was there that he developed his training and career. He studied at the Detroit Society of Arts and Crafts and later at the Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield, Michigan, where he later became a teacher and created the department of metalwork. During these years he began to experiment with the forms of jewelry, and to explore ideas that would later emerge in his sculpture and designs. In 1943 he began his collaboration with designer Charles Eames, with whom he worked until 1946. After a period working for Point Loma Navel Electronics as a creator of equipment manuals, in 1949 he joined Hans Knoll at Knoll Associates. His first sculpture exhibition took place at the Knoll Showroom in New York in 1951, and the following year Knoll would patent his most famous furniture design, the welded rod "Diamond" chair. Bertoia's designs are now in the collections of major design and contemporary art museums, including MoMA in New York and many others.
