Shown at the Copenhagen Cabinetmakers’ Guild exhibition in 1935. Kaare Klint is widely recognized as the father of Danish modern design. It is hard to overstate his influence. He developed an entirely new analytical approach to furniture design that his students at the Danish Academy of Art would emulate for years to come, yet was also inspired by historic designs from various cultures, modernizing and re-interpreting classic pieces for new generations. Literature: Gorm Harkær, Klintiana: “Kaare Klint”, vol.2, pg 94. Kaare Klint (1888-1954) is regarded as the founding father of Danish Modernim. As an architect, furniture designer and leading professor at the Department of Furniture Design at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, Copenhagen, Klint established the principles of modern Danish furniture by combining a profound appreciation of traditional construction techniques with a modernist emphasis on function and a rejection of ornaments. Klint’s design was always based on relentless research; he never compromised. Every piece had to fulfill its purpose, be completely clear in its construction with dimensions and proportions corresponding to the human body and display materials and craftsmanship of the highest quality. Logic, often using a mathematical system of measures, and a constructive way of thinking were the foundation of Klint’s philosophy of furniture design. Like many of his contemporaries, counting Le Corbusier and Walter Gropius, he advocated standardization and functional requirements and dismissed the use of all ornamentation. But Klint realized his vision in wood and leather, using traditional craftsmen and working methods and often finding inspiration in historical models. In this way, he charted the course for an alternative Nordic Functionalism that idealized the workshop and the collaboration between furniture architects and cabinetmakers as opposed to the factory. Kaare Klint’s first major work was a collaboration with his mentor, the architect Carl Petersen. In 1914 they were commissioned to design furniture and fixtures for Faaborg Art Museum. One of the highlights to emerge from this commission was the Faaborg chair, a light and elegant chair with clear references to classical furniture. The construction and proportions of an 18th century English Chippendale...

No. BCH-003 The Wood Float Bench blurs the lines between art and furniture. Handcrafted from solid walnut, the seat is elegantly curved in contrast with the structured back, which is supported by transparent acrylic and acts as an interactive picture frame to capture the ever-changing environment in which it sits. Captivating and intriguing the Wood Float Bench can stand alone with its beautiful exposed walnut finish or can be adorned with custom cushions in a variety of fabrics for additional support and comfort. The Wood Float Bench is part of the Float Collection, originally designed by Lauren Rottet, when she bought the George Nelson house in Montauk and needed furniture that fit in with the mid-century modern hand crafted aesthetic and freed the spaces from visual clutter, allowing the inhabitants to see past the furniture to the architecture of the space, keeping the atmosphere lighter and more airy. The Wood Float Bench also referred to as the Wood Float Sofa...
