string
®works
when architects anna von schewen and industrial designer björn dahlström recently designed the folding table and bowl shelf for string we asked them to continue. the question was: is it possible to make your work place as pleasant an environ-ment as your living room and still be fully functio-nal? their response was to develop a whole series of products using the string system as a base. we call them string® works. according to anna
and björn it´s ”a series of furniture for a flexible and contemporary work environment”. it is actu-ally classic furniture, which may equactu-ally well be used at home in the kitchen or in the study. with string® works anna and björn have built on nisse
strinning´s simplicity and ingenuity and created a series of furniture both for the present and future.
1. height adjustable desk
people are not built to sit still. therefore, we work better if we can vary our posture. by changing position from sitting to standing, one can concen-trate more and feel better. the height adjustable desk in string® works is similar to traditional
trest-les, but without their heavy appearance. the table frame is made of 40 and 50 mm square metal tu-bes, a thin dimension that gives the whole table an unusual visual lightness. the desk is created for all types of office environment, but works equally well at home. it can also be used as a small meeting table. the height adjustable feature is especially useful for spontaneous meetings where you pre-fer to actively stand up. as an accessory, a pullout drawer in plastic can be mounted under the table top. the drawer has two compartments for storing small items, pens and the like. the table also has a cable tray where all the wires can be neatly and efficiently stored.
2. freestanding shelf
through an ingenious modular system of uprights and partitions the string panels (height 1150 mm ) can be mounted as freestanding shelves. shelves can be mounted either on one side or on both si-des. the partition is lined in felt to reduce noise in open office environments. the usual string product range can of course be integrated with this free-standing solution.
3. filing cabinet
efficient storage of office supplies with adjustable shelves. holds two full rows of binders. easily inte-grated into the string shelving system.
4. bowl
as an accessory to the freestanding shelf there is a round bowl that can be mounted onto the up-rights.
5. bowl shelf for storage
the bowl shelf with three compartments is neat and convenient for storage and sorting. it is made from plastic and can therefore also be used as a flower-pot.
6. wire screen for the desk
this handy wire screen complements the charac-teristic striping of the string side panel. the wire screen works as a semi-transparent partition be-tween workstations. furthermore, it can be turned into a bulletin board.
7. fabric sleeve
to create more privacy the wire screen can be fit-ted with a fabric sleeve, which also reduces the sound level around the work desk.
8. mobile storage unit
string® works mobile storage unit has two
spaci-ous drawers. the top is made of plastic with two compartments for organizing smaller items. the storage unit can easily be moved between diffe-rent workstations by using the inset wire clip on the back.
9. pc holder for computer colour and material choice
the desk is available in white, ash and oak. the mo-bile storage unit in white, ash and oak. the filing cabinet in white and oak.
