Carl Hansen BM5568 Deck Chair

Manufacturer: Carl Hansen

Designer: Borge Mogensen

Originally developed in the 1960s for his private balcony, Børge Mogensen’s Deck Chair is reintroduced for 2020 and beyond. With its folding function and angled frame, the BM5568 Deck Chair profiles an inviting, honest and laid-back expression in untreated, FSC®-certified teak.

Characterised by clarity of both design and function, Borge Mogensen’s Deck Chair isn’t just a piece to be merely admired from a distance: the FSC®-certified teak design invites us to sit down and relax in the great outdoors thanks to wooden slats shaped to follow the natural curves of the body.

Crafted with a generous, reclining seat and a frame angled for comfort - and with the option to add a padded fabric cushion for additional support - the functional and flexible chair can easily be moved to catch the best light. When not in use, it can be folded flat and stored away or hung on a wall as a decorative feature.

Like all of Borge Mogensen’s furniture designs, the BM Deck Chair combines functional strength with natural materials and a timeless aesthetic. Carefully crafted details nod to the designer’s background as a cabinetmaker and draw clear stylistic references to the American Shakers and 19th Century English furniture design.
