MENGEL
MENGEL designs and produces handcrafted furniture that is made primarily from concrete and produced locally at our studio in Copenhagen. Our design vision is minimal and elegant, with pieces that are simple yet sculptural in their purest form.
We work with the contrasting characteristics of concrete from silky smooth surfaces to rough and unpolished details. Like everything in life, differences and contrasts are important as they create balance and the foundation for harmony.
The signature stroke of MENGEL furniture is simple – large, robust, and significant pieces that maintain a light and elegant expression, while sparking a feeling of curiosity and joy.
We want you to explore our pieces and experience their subtle nuances – obtaining an understanding that each design is telling its own sensible and unique story.
GEORG MENGEL
MENGEL is founded by Georg Mengel. Georg is a trained engineer and before launching MENGEL, he worked in the cement industry for large parts of his career.
Following an extensive exploration of the material in his own concrete workshop, Georg finalized a curated collection of furniture that was launched in 2022 during Salone Satellite, at Salone Del Mobile in Milano. In 2024 MENGEL was part of Ark Journals first ever curated exhibition for 3 Days of Design focusing on high-end design and craftsmanship. MENGEL continues to develop new products as well as bespoke custom-made furniture for commercial and private projects.
»I want MENGEL designs to be honest, accessible, and easy to understand. Playful and thought evoking. Balancing functionality and elegance, whilst creating harmony for the eye through each element of the design«. - Georg Mengel.
