Design discovery of the year 2013: VARIABLE HEIGHT SHELVING

Is it possible that such a piece of furniture was created almost 60 years ago? Yes, because it was created by a master, a visionary designer, Rajmund Teofil Hałas.

The VARIABLE HEIGHT SHELVING, designed in 1959, is now available for purchase. Visit our online store at www.nowymodel.org. Easy to assemble, it leaves room for the user's imagination to define its final size and shape, adapting to the size and style of the interior, innovative in design, and eco-friendly.

We would like to thank the Taczaka 20 cafe in Poznań for providing its interior for the photo session.
