Story
A module of Koch's shelving system
Fredericia presents the MK66 as one module of the shelving system Mogens Koch designed in 1928. This one has four compartments, and the maker links its joinery to Koch's precision, material honesty and sense of beauty.
Made at the Fredericia carpentry workshop
The product page's impact section says the MK66 is made at the Fredericia carpentry workshop in Denmark, and says the craft knowledge behind it is passed on across generations. It also says solid wood develops a patina when looked after.
