About the Item

From 1954 until 1985, Mobilia served as an influential Danish publication dedicated to modern design. Its pages showcased the innovations of Scandinavian furniture makers, architects, artists, and industrial designers. Renowned for its bold visual presentation, the magazine combined striking covers with in-depth editorial features. To reach readers beyond Denmark, the issues were in both English, German, and French (and of course Danish). This rare collection of 171 magazines works both as a collector’s piece and as something you can actually use and enjoy reading. The set shows some wear and signs of use; feel free to reach out if you’d like more detailed photos of individual issues. We haven’t inspected every single page, but overall the collection is complete and in usable condition.
