String - Pocket - metal

String® Pocket metal is sold as a complete shelf but is equally flexible as String® System. String® Pocket invites creativity and personality where you can combine two or three String® Pocket shelves into one larger shelf. Mix and match different colours to suit your style and preferences. The perforated metal shelves with low edge, 2 cm, makes it possible to add hooks and rods (30 cm and 58 cm) to increase the storage possibilities. String® Pocket metal is sold as one complete unit containing two wire panels, height 50 cm, and three metal shelves, width 58 cm and depth 15 cm.

'Modern since 1949'. String is the original component shelving system designed by the Swedish architect Nils Strinning in 1949. He was one of the leading mid-twentieth century designers who built the foundation of what we now call 'Scandinavian design'.

The structure is light weight, yet stable. It is simple to assemble, and the shelves can be easily repositioned. Books are kept in place by the side panels and shelves of different depths can be combined in the same unit. When more shelf space is needed, simply add an additional side panel and some shelves. It is equally suited to a large or a small wall. This and the minimalistic timeless design is the reason why String still attracts attention after 70 years.
