Scatter brain: Nendo takes a shine to shelves

The unit features 5mm black acrylic shelves stacked in three layers, forming a grid. When viewed from the front, objects on the shelves look like they are trapped in a spider’s web, according to Nendo.

And when viewed at an angle the unit’s glossy face creates a series of reflections and surface shine that make the opaque acrylic appear transparent, producing a kaleidoscopic effect, says Nendo.

Clean lines and the careful use of materials suggest fluency and simplicity and indicate a renewed shift towards leanness and cultural decluttering, as seen in the Minimal Luxury design direction. For more on similar design aesthetics, read about Nendo in our Portfolio section.
