Kay Bojesen Posters and Postcards

For example, decorate the walls in the children’s room with the Eye Chart poster. The eye chart is a Danish design classic that is inspired by the well-known charts used by eye doctors, where the illustrations gradually get smaller. This chart has been turned into a beautiful poster with brown motifs on a white background using Kay Bojesen’s most popular wooden figures and wooden animals. The decorative poster is hand-drawn by Vicky Gry Hjortsøe.

All posters are made from FSC® certified paper.

Some of the designs that Kay Bojesen is best known for are his imaginative monkeys, songbirds, elephant and other wooden animals. The happy family of animals and figures is full of love and delights both young and old. It was therefore only natural to decorate the Eye Chart with these well-known animals, which spread joy to people of all ages. Kay Bojesen’s collection represents a tribute to the inner child, which is why the poster works equally well in the children's room and the living room.

When the Kay Bojesen brand was founded back in 1932, it marked the start of a story about a craftsman with a great sense of humour and plenty of curiosity. Kay Bojesen created his figures based on a philosophy that good design should be accessible to everyone, a mission that he definitely achieved. To this day, Kay Bojesen products can be found in countless Danish homes. Over time, Kay Bojesen has become synonymous with original Danish design at its best.

Kay Bojesen is the epitome of original Danish design; his soft, round shapes and smiling lines create original stories in wood. Kay Bojesen’s designs have always been based on a child's perspective of the world. Kay Bojesen was inspired by children’s curiosity and imagination, and it was the way children viewed the world that inspired many of the iconic characters that we know so well today.

With his wonderful and imaginative animals and figures, Kay Bojesen created a happy family filled with love, the highest quality and made from sustainable materials. All of this is replicated in the poster, which is, as mentioned, made from certified paper. In other words, Kay Bojesen's collection is a real tribute to the inner child – and appeals to children, adults and fans alike looking for beautiful design objects that can follow them in each stage of their lives.
