Bar Boy from Vitra

Bar Boy from Vitra

The dollop of cream atop the perfect office is a practical, aesthetic and user friendly trolley. In general an office trolley fulfills several roles: As a convenient depository for heavy folders or a pile of uncompleted jobs or occasionally as a bar trolley.

smow currently offers five different trolleys, that in addition to providing work-based mobility  can also be used as side tables and/or mobile bars:

Gastone from Kartell (Design: Antonio Citterio & Oliver Löw)

Battista’s strength is not only its impressive storage volume but also its multi-functionality. It is collapsible (20cm wide when folded) and can be either partially extended (and used as small side table) or fully extended and used as trolley or bar trolley (Dimensions: H69 x L100 x W54 cm). The shelf itself is formed from polyester and is available in five colors.

The bar trolley Champagne is part of the world famous USM Haller modular furniture system family. It is composed of two shelves, the lower of which has storage space for eight bottles. The Champagne trolley comes with a handle and if required the castors can be fitted with brakes. The metal tablets are available in 13 colors. In addition smow also stock Schnaps, a scaled down version of the USM Haller bar trolley.

Bar Boy from Vitra (Design: Verner Panton, 1963)

This trolley from Vitra has not only the best name of the five models presented here, but also the most outlandish form. Bar Boy with its cylindrical form is a trolley, a side table and a storage unit in one. The three different sized containers are fixed on a pillar around which they can be rotated so as to allow access to the other containers. This original Vitra trolley has plenty of storage space for either office accessories or bar necessities. And is a guaranteed talking point and prestige addition to any furniture collection.
