Fredericia
Søborg Chair
Metal Base
Price starting from € 670,00*
*Price valid for the version with base in black varnished steel - seat and backrest in lacquered oak - without upholsteries (cod. 3060).
Although it was originally designed by Børge Mogensen in the distant 1950s, the Søborg chair by Fredericia has an aesthetic that still appears fresh and contemporary today. The result of Mogensen's experiments with plywood, Søborg is composed of two distinct sheets with gently rounded shapes that make up a welcoming seat and a comfortable backrest, which can also be equipped with an optional leather or fabric padding. The structure is available in two different variants, one more natural and typically Scandinavian, in solid wood, the other more contemporary, in metal. The metallic variant can also be completed with small armrests hooked directly to the backrest.

Designed by
Borge Mogensen
Børge Mogensen (1914-1972) is one of the figures who most contributed to defining the style of traditional Danish design that is still so loved and appreciated today. Mogensen in particular played a key role in leading Danish design from a pioneering phase still strongly linked to the handcrafted creation of high-quality, high-cost products to a more democratic development, aimed at the masses and young people thanks to lower prices but without lose in quality. He did this through great attention to the production and standardization aspects, developing and bringing and calibrating on large numbers the analytical and rational design method taught to him by his great master Kaare Klint, under whom he bored at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts and for the which he worked for several years. He was able to implement this method above all thanks to his role as design director for Fællesforening for Danmarks Brugsforeninger (Confederation of Danish Design Cooperatives, still active today with the FDB Møbler brand), established in 1942 with the aim of producing low-cost for the widest possible audience. Starting in 1950, Mogensen left the FDB and founded his own design studio which will also give life to more valuable and refined products, produced in particular thanks to the partnership with the Fredericia brand. As taught to him by Klint, Mogensen loved to reinterpret classic English Windosre Chir furniture types or Shaker-style furnishings, reinterpreted with natural materials and functional but elegant shapes. In addition to Fredericia and FDB Møbler, today his furnishings are also produced by brands such as Carl Hansen & Søn, Hay and Mater.
