The Design
About Parachute Nástenná polica
Parachute je nástenná polica vyrobená z plechu. Keď sa niektorá sekcia používa, doska tejto sekcie sa sklopí nadol a zostane visieť na mieste. Visiaca doska drží kabát, časopis alebo podobné predmety a bráni ich pádu. Povrch nesie farebné pruhy oddelené tenkými medzerami, takže polica pripomína grafický vzhľad moderného padáka a možno ju vnímať aj ako nástenné umenie. Parachute má šírku 790 mm, hĺbku 30 mm a výšku 220 mm. Názov spája myšlienky ochrany a pádu.

- 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.
