Mogens Koch's furniture design forms part of some of the most elegant and important solutions in terms of meeting the requirements to comfort, function and aesthetics and his furniture has been key to Rud. Rasmussen's production since 1932.\n\nMogens Koch worked within all aspects of architecture - housing plans, houses, monuments, furniture, textiles, silver and writing. Mogens Koch's works include only few objects but they are all essential, original and sometimes courageous or daring. There has always been special interaction between Mogens Koch's own life and the furniture he designed. None of them came into existence as artistic manifestos but arose from a given assignment and were created for a particular purpose. Thus, his bookcase was at first designed for his private home in Hulgårdsvej near Bellahøj in Copenhagen.\n\nThe small rooms in people's houses required a flexible bookcase or cabinet and in 1928 he drew the first sketches for the square bookcase which in the relatively small module of 76 cm x 76 cm provided great and varied functional usage.\n\nKoch was awarded numerous honorable prizes - amongst others the Eckersberg Medal (1938), the C. F. Hansen Medal (1963) and the ID Prize (1992)","products":[{"product_id":"105-pendant-lamp","title":"105 pendant lamp by Le Klint","description":"In 1945, on commission from Le Klint the 105 Pendant Lamp took shape, Mogens Koch simplified the myriad of cross-pleats in Kaare and Le Klint Fruit lamp to create this more stringent lampshade design. The 105 Pendant Lamp's oval shape gives the lamp a more sedate expression, closely allied to traditional Chinese paper lamps. The enclosed shape makes it suitable for hanging from a high ceiling.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Le Klint","offers":[{"title":"B Plastic (Medium)","offer_id":30257091477607,"sku":"13033_1","price":593.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"A Plastic (Small)","offer_id":30257091444839,"sku":"13033_2","price":507.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0069\/2358\/3591\/products\/edcdaccdb15ae389a5a2f34510ea9436_6c8af2a9-b32e-4142-998d-84c289120ceb.jpg?v=1708235908"},{"product_id":"b98-bookcase","title":"B98 Bookcase","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhen FDB Møbler's creative studio was founded in 1942, it was an act of rebellion against the status quo. The goal was to design beautiful, functional furniture not just for the wealthy, but for the common man. The designs railed against the heavy, unconfortable furniture of the day by paying tribute to and making room for everyday living – and all life has to offer. Each of the architects and furniture designers who have been involved with FDB Møbler's production has a unique story.
