Theme

After the preliminary research I’ve decided to focus on shelving.

I’m interested in the traditional aesthetic of Chinese shelving.
The seemingly random layout of the shelves intrigues me. They differ greatly from the traditional European lay out of regimented linear shelving. The combination of large and small shelving allows for a wider variety of objects to be stored in the same shelving unit.
The combination of circular framing and linear shelving creates a nice juxtaposition of form.
