Connecting segments.

With custom made book display units, commisioned by Claire de Rouen Books, January 2024

Named after an act of connecting segments, Garland is a modular shelving system that is incrementally extendable both in width and height. On developing the Garland, our objective was to create flexible and robust system that’s elegant in its visual simplicity.

Development of Garland

The choice of materials reflect our intention to make each elements purposeful, and to offer an understated luxury. Shelves are made with solid wood in ash. Structural elements – connections bar and uprights are machined from aluminium and available in either hand polished silver or anodised dark brown. A choice of powder-coated back panels or aluminium braces adds to lateral stability. Cabinets options is also available and are furnished with fluted glass doors and a back panel.
