String shelves and hanging cabinets

A classic among shelving systems! The String shelf by Kajsa and Nils Nisse Strinning dates back to 1949 yet still meets almost all the requirements that can be placed on a modular, functional shelving system - a genuine timeless classic. The most striking feature of the String bookshelves are the wall or floor ladders, into which the shelves and additional modules are embedded. These ladders ensure that even large shelving constructions remain absolutely stable without losing the typical restrained lightness and elegance of the String shelving system. The combination possibilities of the individual parts are almost endless, not least because wall or floor ladders and shelves of different depth and colour can be combined with each other. As a consequence there are countless ways to tailor String to your own individual needs. Help with the conception of your individual system is provided by the String configurator: wall or floor ladders of different sizes and colours can be selected, and complemented by matching shelves and other elements, such as the String wall cabinet with sliding doors. The String system, which includes the well-known String Pocket Regal, and is in high demand among lovers of Scandinavian design.
