Mogens Koch for Rud Rasmussen, modular book case or library, mahogany, Denmark, 1950s

Intriguing and substantial modular library by Danish designer Mogens Koch. This piece is constructed from different elements to form this great wall unit or library. The execution of this design is wonderful and a typical example for Scandinavian modern furniture. The appearance of this library comes across as fresh in its progressive design but deep and warm due to the use of the mahogany wood that has amazing depth and color to it. This piece is very suitable for a book collector, though this piece could also be of great use to display pieces of art or other collectibles.

Mogens Koch (1898-1993) was a Danish architect, furniture-designer, teacher and typographer. Koch studied under Kaare Klint and always challenged the complexity of materials and designs. He is known for his functional, comfortable yet highly aesthetic designs.

Please note that this piece is in good, used condition. The mahogany type used for this piece does not require an export license.
