Organize, Organically, Like a Beehive

Structured like a beehive, Iron Hive is a modular shelf system that allows users to organise in an organic way. The project inspiration comes from repetitive geometrical elements that simulate the optical effect and complex polygonal shapes of a beehive structure, as well as that of other natural elements like atoms, cells or crystals. The intention is to create a modular system that recalls each of these elements in their strongest properties – the solidity and lightness of a beehive, the splitting and flexibility of atoms, and reproducibility of cells. The result is a piece of furniture that is organic and structured, delicate and strong, all at the same time

The Iron Hiveseries is composed of individual modules (dimensions are 330 x 330 x 330 mm) that allow the user to classify, store and “grow” the storage solution as required. With the support of a simple wooden base, the modules also function well as seats or side tables. When the modules are combined, they can form a bookshelf, a sideboard or any furniture that one fancies. The Iron Hivebookshelf is lightness and stability at its best. It has a polished iron or powder coated finish, which makes its outlook elemental, organic or solemn.
