Bodil Kjær (b.1932) is a Danish architect and designer best known for her modern furniture designs from the 1950s and 1960s. Trained as an architect, she designed furniture with a clear sense of structure and proportion, focusing on pieces that were practical, durable, and easy to live with.

Her work was created for real environments rather than showrooms, and many of her designs were used in offices, public buildings, and diplomatic spaces. Clean lines, honest materials, and straightforward construction are central to her approach.

Today, Bodil Kjær’s furniture is valued for its quiet confidence and long-lasting relevance. The designs feel grounded and rational, shaped by architectural thinking rather than trends, and continue to fit naturally into contemporary interiors.
