Presentation
Fruit-Wall is a novel system for storing vertically fruits and vegetables.
Fruit-Wall is composed of up to six shelves that hang from a support securely anchored to the wall. Delicate yet resistant wires hold the shelves in place, creating a floating sensation for your fruit and vegetables.
Fruit-Wall put your fruits and vegetables in a better point of view what helps make the shopping list, controlling maturation and that there is no more fruit rot at the bottom of the bowl.
It will also bring fruit right within your kids' reach, save you lots of space at the counter, and last but not least, Fruit-Wall will convert your fruits and vegetables into a piece of art constantly changing!
Our Story:
The idea came about based on a personal need for kitchen organization.
Our fruit bowls were taking up too much space at the counter. Why not design shelves to hold fruits and vegetables mounted on a wall, like venetian blind?
We develope this idea in a one-off piece, and the benefits come with the use. It is handy and beautiful, and at the same time helps to organize the fruit according to ripeness, and easily make a shopping list.
Also realized that the fruit does not get bruised like in a typical fruit bowl since their placement side-by-side versus on top of each other prevents pre-mature rot. In addition, kids eat even more fruit because it is in plain view, making it even more enticing, and easy to reach.
And because this first Fruit-Wall has piqued so many visitors’ and friends’ interest, we decided to launch this project to produce more of them so that more people can begin enjoying it!
After months of work, we were able to create a design that requires only 3-5 screws (depending on which of the two models is needed), to hang up to 21 or 42 lbs. of fruits and vegetables on your wall – imagine all the counter and fridge space that is freed-up!
Now we just need to reach people who could really use and take advantage of all of the product’s advantages: anyone who loves fruit, appreciates the color and natural decorative value it brings to a home, and of course, could use the extra kitchen space.
