The Design

About Exquisite Wood Bücherregal

Exquisite Wood ist ein Bücherregal aus Ulmenholz. Der Entwurf ist von chinesischen Möbeln inspiriert und verbindet quadratische und runde Formen zu einer schlichten und würdevollen Erscheinung. Die Bauteile werden mit Flügelschrauben aus Metall verbunden, einzelne Partien nutzen Zapfen-und-Schlitz-Verbindungen. Die Teile werden mittels CNC-Fräsen und -Schnitzen aus geradem Holz geschnitten, was den Materialverlust reduziert. Das Bücherregal lässt sich von Hand montieren und wieder demontieren, sodass Produktion und Transport einfach bleiben. Trennwände ermöglichen das sortierte Aufbewahren von Büchern und Objekten.
