Featuring a long, low profile with a generously padded, channel-tufted leather cushion resting on a minimalist chrome-plated steel frame. The frame extends seamlessly into the four legs, creating the characteristic floating appearance of the design. Newly upholstered in Camo Ivory leather. The frame is in good vintage condition. Due the use of small black spacers, a floating expression is created. Bruning worked together with Fabricius & Kastholm, and shared many ideas with them which you can clearly tell by the quality of the furniture. Bruning was educated in Hamburg, Copenhagen and Stockholm, after which he started his own studio in Stuttgart in 1963. He implements the Bauhaus idea: minimal in form, functional in application and use, durable in practice, timeless, but nevertheless show the spirit of time. This daybed competes with pieces from the same era, like for example, the PK80 daybed by Poul Kjaerholm. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
official proof of authenticity,
however it is well documented in design history. I take full responsibility for any authenticity
