BK13 Swing Sofa - untreated teak
The BK13 Swing Sofa from Carl Hansen was designed in 1959 by Bodil Kjær as part of a series of beautifully crafted, architecturally inspired indoor-outdoor furniture. As with the rest of the series, the Danish architect looked to Cubism for inspiration for the sofa’s precise, streamlined form, which is crafted from solid teak.
Designed to withstand harsh weather, the swing sofa also offers superior comfort, suspended from knotted ropes for a relaxing rocking motion. Designed for indoors and out, it can be supplied with cushions made from weather-resistant Sunbrella fabric as well as the BK17 A-frame for easy suspension.
Danish professor and architect Bodil Kjær has significantly contributed to the spread of Danish Modern design principles through her travels, knowledge gathering and promotion of the relationship between design and architecture.
Kjær views furniture construction from a purely technical perspective, interplayed with modern architecture and created for people. She always considers context and has collaborated with different professions in her desire to optimize physical settings.
