Lassen’s sharp sense of contemporary functionalism did not go unrecognised, either. The well-known Copenhagen

family Birger Christensen purchased an early version of the Kubus 8 and were so pleased with it that they invited

their friends to dinner to show it off. Among the guests were Finn Juhl and Mogens Lassen’s daughter and son-in-law.

The unveiling of the Kubus was highly anticipated and the evening passed with all the delight of a theatre opening

night. Kubus causes great excitement and is admired as a unique work of art.
