rapunzel 2016

Designers: Kati Meyer-Brühl, brühl & sippold GmbH., Bad Steben, Germany
Manufacturer: brühl & sippold GmbH., Bad Steben, Germany 


Storage space, artistically inspired: The comb – acommonplace article of daily use – was the inspiration forthis unique, humorous and utterly useful shelf whose special feature lies in the fact that the ‘teeth’, instead of dividing hair as they would in a comb, here give hold: They reliably hold the individual shelves in place while at the same time allowing easy adjustments of position.

Only the top and bottom shelf have been permanently fixed for static reasons. In combination with the lightcoloured natural wood it is made from, the rapunzel shelf develops a lively and cheerful effect – as a cupboard, a bookcase, a storage space for collectibles or a particularly handsome, carefully crafted object.
