OGK Safari Ole Gjerløv-Knudsen,1962

The OGK Safari collection was designed by Ole Gjerløv-Knudsen in 1962 for his son who was going camping. Each element can be dismantled, rolled up and stored in a linen case that can be carried over the shoulder.

The daybed can be used for many things: sunbathing, napping, sitting down, etc. It can also be used as a guest bed. 

The lounge chair provides comfortable seating for lazing around in the garden or on the deck of a boat.

The children's bed completes this set, which is as simple as it is clever.

Each part is easy to assemble and disassemble, with no tools required.

Ole Gjerløv-Knudsen

Ole Gjerløv-Knuden (1930 - 2009) is a Danish furniture architect and the son of C.O. Gjerløv-Knudsen.

He studied at the Håndværkerskolen School of Cabinetmaking, where he graduated in 1952, and at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts until 1955. Ole Gjerløv-Knudsen designed furniture series for joinery and industrial production, and became known for his lightweight furniture in beechwood and plywood.

Between 1967 and 1990, Ole Gjerløv-Knudsen was director of the Danish School of Arts and Crafts (Skolen for Brugskunst/Danmarks Designskole).

In his last professional years, together with cabinetmaker Ivan Schlechter, he ran a furniture repair and restoration workshop in Gilleleje.

Throughout his life, Ole Gjerløv-Knudsen was extremely productive and his creations were many and varied.

Skovshoved Møbelfabrik is very proud to be able to perpetuate Ole Gjerløv-Knudsen's visions.
