IO shelf

Shelving from modulor, Designed by Kai Funke

Product description

We are selling table tops with melamine resin coatings for many years. The manufacturer of the table tops noticed that due to the dimensions of the melamine resin-coated starting material, recurring formats were produced that due to its small size could no longer be processed into table tops. The designer then had an idea to use these pieces in other ways. Now that they are here. This process is somewhat similar to upcycling. Since the shelves were made from existing pieces of a certain material, there wasn't much scope when designing them. However, this also meant that no time was wasted in choosing the material. However, the difficult part was to create a new and different shelf from a material from which many other shelves already existed. The designer's goal was to create a free-standing shelf without a rear wall that could be used from both sides and was therefore versatile. At the same time, the shelf had to have a nice design and match the brand. The shelving system IO was created: It is rotatable and very stable. It is also free-standing, as intended, and offers six areas. This shelf can even be used as a room divider. We ourselves are more than pleased with this shelving system.
