The Design

About Exquisite Wood Knihovna

Exquisite Wood je knihovna vyrobená z jilmového dřeva. Design je inspirován čínským nábytkem a kombinuje hranaté a kulaté tvary, čímž vytváří jednoduchý a důstojný vzhled. Jednotlivé díly jsou spojeny kovovými motýlkovými šrouby a některé části využívají čepové spoje. Díly jsou vyřezávány z rovného dřeva pomocí číslicově řízeného frézování a vyřezávání, což snižuje ztráty materiálu. Knihovnu lze ručně sestavit i rozebrat, takže výroba i přeprava zůstávají jednoduché. Přihrádky umožňují třídit a ukládat knihy a předměty.
