LAUNCH PARTY: THOM FOUGERE + BØRGE MOGENSEN CURATED BY SCANDINAVIAN MODERN, Sept 20 2013

Leif Norman

For the past five years, Winnipeg-based furniture designer Thom Fougere has been quietly designing a small line of furnishings. Influenced by the Prairies and Winnipeg itself, Fougere’s designs feature minimal yet intriguing forms and materials.

For a limited time at the Winnipeg Design Festival, Edition 1 of this line of furnishings will be made available for purchase.

A presentation of Mid-Century master Børge Mogensen’s furnishings will stand alongside Fougere’s work. Curated by Mike Goreski of Scandinavian Modern, the presentation will feature hand-picked mid-century classics from the collection which will also be available for sale.
