Shelving shouldn't be a backdrop to the knick knacks, books and items we put on display to map our lives. It is just as important and can make a big impact as well, especially when it is so interchangeable & versatile like the HIVE.
Taken from their website:
2004 // 521Design and GUBI of Denmark are proud to introduce a new shelving system designed by Chris Ferebee. The new system called the Hive.H2 continues the organic forms and versatility of the original Hive Shelving Unit yet employs an innovative manufacturing technique. This technique uses a unique combination of bent aluminum and walnut veneer, creating an ultra slim design yet maintaining strength and a high-tech look from the aluminum core which is complimented by the warmth of the veneer. Another key feature of the H2 is its modularity. Each module can be bought separately allowing one to build a system to suit their needs. The combinations are endless.
