Armarium cabinet by Vilde HagelundCurrent ProductionDimensions: W 60 x D 30 x H 145 cmMaterials: Birch Wood.Armarium is a highly functional storage unit made out of birch wood, with both shelves and a drawer for safe keeping of your favourite belongings behind decorative doors. The handcut, organic texture on the surface of the doors stands in striking contrast to the cabinet’s clean, straight lines and angles, giving the cabinet a highly tactile impression. The aim is to use and highlight craftsmanship and knowledge of materials as prerequisites for producing furniture that endures. The dimensions chosen makes Armarium a modest alternative to the archetypal display cabinet, and thus a more fitting Size for todays modern home.
