With the tRACK shelving system, architects and planners can use spaces and complete concepts without compromising on design.
There are many good reasons for a shelf: it offers storage space for hunters and collectors, it is a good place to keep things tidy, it proves itself as a team player in the office and it is convincing as practical furniture at home. However, there are even more good reasons not to compromise when choosing a shelf.
Shelves themselves often take up a lot of space and are therefore defining elements for the overall effect of a room. That's why it was time to develop a system that can be flexibly adapted to interior concepts, is manufactured to a high standard, is easy to assemble and enriches any place of use with its clear design.
With tRACK, all the requirements of a perfect shelving system can be met. Thanks to an installation height of up to 6 metres as standard, tRACK can utilise the conditions on site right up to the ceiling, if desired. It can be individually specified whether tRACK is used purely as a wall shelf, as a suspended canopy with a depth of up to 2.70m or as a corner shelf to make optimum use of existing space.
tRACK is also versatile as a room divider. Thanks to its delicate and elegant character, tRACK looks like a design object even when placed in a room. Regardless of the dimensions, the system offers a secure stand and a stable construction. No great effort is required to assemble the system, because the proven one-screw system reliably and permanently connects the tubes to the floors.
For even more individuality and design freedom, the refined steel tubes as well as the connectors and the shelves can be customised in colour. Depending on the selection, tRACK can be staged as an eye-catcher or designed in a restrained uniform colour scheme. What remains consistent is the timeless elegance and clear style of the shelving system.
The tubes in sage matt, deep black or Alpine white can be combined with connectors in white, black, matt nickel, copper sunset, sage matt or pearlescent gold – in matching or divergent colours. Even when contrasted by different colours of the individual elements, the overall picture remains harmonious and coherent.
Less as a shelf than as a room designer, tRACK transforms rooms functionally thanks to specially made extensions. For example, specially developed bottle holders – magnetically fixed – give your tRACK a bar character, while practical wine glass holders also ensure effective use of space in the kitchen and classic bookends complement your tRACK library.
In the home office, tRACK impresses with additional storage surfaces, while in the bathroom the system can be stylishly subordinated to the permanently installed bathroom ceramics or demonstrates enormous presence as a room divider. In galleries, public spaces and sales areas, tRACK proves to be a versatile presentation surface for books and objects of all kinds.
As a hanging version, tRACK appears to float almost weightlessly. As a media wall, tRACK also benefits from its tailor-made lightness, and the gallery inserts provide space for favourite pieces. By integrating closed modules, tRACK also offers solutions for rooms in which not everything that is needed is to be displayed.
For example, the system offers the option of integrating an open or closed carcase in the grids, which can be supplied as a hinged cabinet or as a drawer element, as desired. These inserts can additionally provide special visual effects thanks to 15 colour options. Special bar cabinets and even a bio-ethanol fireplace optimally round off the range of the universal system.
From the beginning of 2022, additional pre-configured low boards, sideboards and high boards will bring the advantages of tRACK to the fore as individual pieces. With deep-pore wood for the carcase area and shelves and back panels made of stone or ceramic, these solitaires also impress with their exceptional aesthetics and high functionality.
With the help of an intelligent configurator and the spatial preview, the entire tRACK system can be planned precisely with just a few clicks. Size and layout can be determined as easily as the colours and materials. After registration, it is possible to save the designs and edit them later.
For complex projects, individual questions and consultations, a professional design team is available to architects and planners on request, in order to align tRACK exactly to the conceptual specifications and to find implementation possibilities even for unusual interior ideas.
The extraordinary quality of the shelving system is based on high-quality production in Germany and a great deal of experience in surface finishing. tRACK was developed after numerous stays in the best hotels, bars and restaurants around the world and after careful analysis of award-winning interior designs, in order to provide professionals in particular with a system for all requirements.
Thanks to the individual configurability of tRACK, the universal system supports the stylistic and functional planning of any space: from the cloakroom to the wellness area, in private homes and public areas. The surfaces are extremely resistant and easy to clean thanks to five percent Teflon in the coating.
Even after installation, tRACK remains flexible. The system can be expanded or adapted to new challenges at any time. tRACK is not just a shelf, but a system with the clear claim of being perfect even for unusual architectural projects.
