LEAN

Egg — Fri, 21 Mar 2008 18:39:39 -0500

A wine rack that pays homage to the Shaker chair rail. A single peg and two points of contact on the leaning rail create the triangle to which this rack owes its solid structure. Using gravity to its best advantage, the rail slips over the peg and tightens at an angle as it finds a comfortable spot to lean between the wall and the floor; in the same way, necks of wine bottles are gripped in the holes for storage. Display as a singular object to hold a case of wine, or use several side by side to store your entire collecion. Upright rail is precision CNC cut 1-1/2" hardwood or plywood. Peg is 1-1/4" DIA hardwood dowel with dowel screw mount.

A simple twist...

dylangold — Fri, 21 Mar 2008 18:30:25 -0500

A simple twist is a modular storage system. It is a wall mounted cubby, console table, stand alone bookcase or any other configuration you see fit. Not a wacky piece of art furniture, it is designed to be a modern, conservative collection of cubes, with an understated twist that garners attention and curiosity upon closer inspection. The box in question is rotated on three axes, perfectly intersecting the adjacent, inline cubes. Computer modeled and cut on a CNC router, it fits flawlessly making a strong joint along the intersecting portions. The twisted box actually penetrates the straight cubes on both sides. It can be customized and manufactured quickly and easily from any sheet stock material Colors, finishes and edge styles can all directed by the customer. An aluminum stand or wall mounted French cleats are available along with any number of additional boxes to complete the desired arrangement. A simpler, cheaper version is available with a single axis rotation. Further prototypes in development are children’s versions and outdoor planter boxes. The example shown here is done in walnut veneer, with a water based clear coat.

Shift Storage

designnest — Wed, 19 Mar 2008 22:52:26 -0500

Your choice of book matched and sequenced veneer covers 1 ¼” plywood and creates the structure for the shelves. The ¾” shelves can be edited as the user sees fit, choosing finish and placement. Overall width, height and depth can be adapted to each customer’s unique space. Metal “T” track insert and mounting hardware supports shelves and allows side to side positioning Different storage solutions can be achieved by adding different components (shelf, hanging rod, etc.) accommodating a range of goods from books and media to coats and shoes.

TRIANGLE WITHIN SQUARE

Yicheng Lawrence Yen — Wed, 27 Feb 2008 23:04:30 -0600

The idea of this design is based integrating flat packing and traditional method into modern looking. This design does not require any hardware. It is pushing the traditional element to the modern life style. The gape between shelfs are intentionally designed for air circulation. If a viewer watch the joinery closely, he/she can find out there are triangles hiding in the square looking joinery. The doors for the storage are functioning interns of playfulness and aesthetics of the overall looking of the design.

001+Storage

richard1115 — Sun, 10 Feb 2008 17:33:24 -0600

The main ideas that kept in my mind when I was designing this shelving unit is to be flat pack able, easy to assemble and no hardware required. This shelving unit is put together by seven separate pieces. Simply by putting in the two metal legs in an angle, everything locks in to place.

Slanted Shelves

designjerk — Wed, 23 Jan 2008 17:26:48 -0600

A modular shelving system that obviates the need for book ends. Each shelf is slanted at a small degree, allowing books (either standing or on their sides) to naturally lean against each other and stay in position—no heavy weights or angled metal pieces required! In the image, four shelving modules are shown, each comprising a column of four shelves. The owner can add as many columns as desired (height extensions could also be offered).
