Product description
The mutation of clearly defined cuboids. Architecture, art and fashion are three disciplines in which rigorous shapes disassemble and reassemble to create new compositions. Giro is just as revolutionary. Giro functions in an entirely new way, with only 17 components offering limitless design opportunities. The concept comprises units, incorporating drawers, flaps and doors on multiples of 51 cm. The modules of this integrated cubic system can be stacked and combined side-by-side - lengthwise, diagonally and even in an overhanging configuration. The various elements slot together, and a special mechanism allows them to slid sideways and even rotated 180° around. Just touch anywhere and the drawers, flaps and doors simply open up.
Giro is perfect anywhere around the home; it shows its strengths wherever deployed, be it in the hallway or as a sideboard, dressing table, home office, TV unit or bar. The components can be placed directly on the floor or hung on the wall. They can serve as free-standing room dividers or as sculptural features in their own right - there's no limit to what they will allow. Giro is modifiable, expandable, unbelievable! Ideally for modern-day nomads.
When it comes to colour, Giro shows its creative side. It's available in all the colour varnishes as well as a richly grained Sapeli veneer.
Versions: With and without back panels; every colour varnish and Sapeli veneer
Dimensions: 3 heights, 5 widths, 17 compatible components
