Serving Cart- Cassina

Designed by
Bodil Kjaer, 1963

From the postwar period, Bodil Kjær opened up her home to a fresh new camaraderie encouraged by versatile furniture that translated the new domestic routines and a renewed need for comfort into tangible designs. With a lively social life, and to solve the problem of kitchens located far from the living room and to not miss out on serving her guests while continuing to converse with them, Kjær designed Serving Cart, a food and beverage cart in solid wood with colored center shelves and upper shelves in stainless steel. Bodil Kjær had picked up on the changes in lifestyles, between dinners eaten in front of the TV or on the patio, in homes that were becoming smaller and smaller. Not by chance, Serving Cart can be tucked away under the table when not in use, or kept out, like a small, elegant architectural accessory.
