About Parachute Seinariiul
Parachute on lehtmetallist valmistatud seinariiul. Kui mõnda sektsiooni kasutatakse, langeb selle sektsiooni plank alla ja jääb rippuma. Rippuv plank hoiab mantlit, ajakirja või muid sarnaseid esemeid ning takistab nende kukkumist. Riiuli pinnal on õhukeste vahedega eraldatud värvilised triibud, mistõttu meenutab riiul kaasaegse langevarju graafilist ilmet ja seda võib tõlgendada ka seinakunstina. Parachute'i laius on 790 mm, sügavus 30 mm ja kõrgus 220 mm. Nimi ühendab kaitsmise ja langemise ideed.

- When listening to Coldplay's first album, it suddenly occurred to me to look up the word "Parachute."
It seems that the name "parachute" comes combining the Italian "parare" (to protect) with the French "chute" (to fall).
I thought that was a rather fine name.
I tried to think of devices that protect against falling.
