Chrome-plated steel, a high load-bearing capacity, an easy-to-assemble construction – these are the key features of this striking shelf. For decades, this type of furniture – developed by American engineer Louis Maslow in 1955 – has been available on the market almost unchanged. The pieces have proven themselves ideal furniture in offices, workshops, warehouses and kitchens while becoming a synonym for functional and style-conscious furnishings in modern living spaces. Archetypically, the shelving system illustrates the rededication of utility furniture from the industrial and technical context to fashionable furnishings in personal living and working areas.
