1. Fredericia Spanish chair by Børge Mogensen
Designed by one of the most influential modern Danish designers Børge Mogensen, the Spanish Chair is perhaps one of the legendary design icon’s most celebrated pieces; the Spanish Chair is highly regarded as a representative of Danish design owing to its simple, function-driven style.
Inspired by the traditional Spanish way of making furniture with sturdy leather, Mogensen combined the high-quality material with solid oak to create a comfortable chair with a timeless appeal. Signature details include the chair’s wide armrests and geometric frame, as well as the adjustable straps and brass buckles hidden beneath and behind the chair.
