From the beginning of his career and throughout his life, he wanted to design furniture with endless combination possibilities that could be adapted to any type of room. In 1944, this desire led to one of his most remarkable and legendary pieces: the Royal System.
Today, these modular shelving units are still a reference in the world of design.
Poul Cadovius was born in Denmark in 1911. He studied to become a saddler and upholsterer. Later, he became interested in designer furniture, particularly modular wall systems. He wanted to design furniture that would fit perfectly into all types of interiors. He designed various collections of modular shelving units with an impressive number of combination possibilities. Later, he pursued his desire to create functional furniture and designed pieces in kit form. He decided to buy the company France & Son, which later became Cado, for which he and other designers created countless pieces.
Cadovius is considered one of the great designers of the 20th century for his innovative approach to modular shelving and kit-form furniture.
