Olaf von Bohr
Designer
Olaf von Bohr was an Austrian-born industrial designer who made a significant impact on Italian design in the 1960s and 1970s. Based in Milan, von Bohr was known for his innovative use of plastic and his functional, modular approach to furniture. He frequently collaborated with leading Italian design brands, most notably Gedy, where he helped redefine the aesthetics of household items through a sleek, modernist lens.
The Gedy Side Table, designed in the 1970s by Olaf von Bohr, is a striking example of mid-century plastic furniture. Made entirely of molded ABS or injection-molded resin, the piece embodies the playful minimalism and futuristic optimism of the era. Its cylindrical form, rounded edges, and built-in storage compartments make it both sculptural and practical.
Often used as a side table, nightstand, or bathroom caddy, this piece reflects von Bohr’s belief that utility should never come at the expense of beauty. Today, the Gedy Side Table remains a sought-after vintage item—celebrated for its space-saving functionality and retro-futuristic charm.
