About

Plank Bookcase

Crafted from full-length pine wood planks, as its name implies, the Plank Bookcase collection offers a simplistic storage solution with an honest and authentic expression. The storage collection features long, solid pine planks that accentuate the robustness, durability, and quality of the design. The utilitarian minimalism of Plank embraces a simple and uncomplicated design language, without the use of unnecessary details.

The Plank Bookcase collection consists of three variants, each serving as a versatile storage solution in different sizes. From the large bookcase to the long, low version that can also be used as a bench, these pieces exemplify the beauty and strength of the pine material. Over time, the durable and welcoming appeal of the pine wood will develop a stunning patina, further enhancing its natural charm. To protect the natural wood and preserve its beauty, each piece of the Plank Bookcase collection is lacquered with a clear, matte UV varnish that shields it from the sun's rays.

Designer

Simon Legald

Simon Legald graduated from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in the summer of 2012. His work consists of both small- and large scale products. Simon's designs are often created in a dialogue between craftsmanship and industry. He also likes to incorporate the techniques that are necessary for the structure of a product into the design by highlighting them visually.

"Honesty is what makes a product understandable and is what describes the products functionality. If you understand the product, it does not need any explanation. The essence of my design is for it to be bought and used. Therefore, it has to satisfy not only the functional aspects, but also the psychological and aesthetic needs. For me simplicity describes the true identity of objects and makes them trustworthy. In my design, I try not to add any unnecessary details. I work with simplicity by highlighting the necessities instead of hiding them. It gives the product a simple and honest expression."
