mathieu lehanneur: strates desk system for objekten

‘strates’ desk system by mathieu lehanneur for objekten

as part of milan design week 2012, ‘belgium is design‘ will present an exhibition entitled ‘perspectives’ at the triennale di milano. the show is set to survey the current state of belgian design and is the result of collaboration with the country’s major design organizations and promoters. ‘perspectives’ reflects on design both on a local and global scale and will be composed of five different themes / scenarios: industrial design, self-produced design (the designer / craftsman), design art (one-off series), social design and design as an ‘open work’ (open source, rapid prototyping).

the desk and shelving unit can be used independently or arranged to form a larger group work space

included in this overview is ‘strates’ by french designer mathieu lehanneur. drawing its name and form on the layered structure of sedimentary rock (stratum), the shelf and desk storage system, developed for belgian furniture brand objekten, is made from high-quality birch plywood. the units are designed in such a way that they can function individually, or be arranged in a group offering a larger communal working surface. ‘strates’ is available in two sizes: strates 148 (148 x 74 x 75 cm) and strates 190 (190 x 74 x 75 cm).
