A MINIMALIST SHELF IN INTERLOCKING ALUMINUM
Introducing a fusion of function and refined simplicity, the Alu Shelf is a study in material efficiency and sculptural elegance.
Composed of two separate aluminum plates that interlock seamlessly, the design eliminates the need for additional reinforcements, relying instead on the precision of its construction to ensure a secure and balanced structure.
By bending the material with precision, the Alu Shelf achieves both its function and a striking aesthetic. The result is a closed, architectural form that subtly frames its contents, emphasizing objects rather than the shelf itself. Available in three sizes—80 cm, 60 cm, and 25 cm—it seamlessly adapts to different spaces and needs, from a kitchen or living room shelf to a compact bedside table.
Finished with a smooth brushed surface and a protective lacquer, the aluminum construction is not only durable but also offers a raw, industrial character that contrasts beautifully with softer interior elements.
