It must be my upcoming trip to Sweden, Norway and Denmark that has kismet bringing a lot of Northern Europe design to my attention lately. I was perusing Demakersvan, a Dutch design house and their renovated studio in Rotterdam when I came across Drawerment. (Please see the official stats at the bottom of this post.)
This is made up of a bunch of second hand drawers from old office furniture installed into white MDF boxes - very simple. THINK of the possibilities! A wall of these would made very nice storage with great visual and conversational interest.
I could see this in several configurations - you could even make a desk out of it on a wall.

Drawerment is a composition of drawers collected from old office furniture. The installation enables viewers to find their own story in it.
In 1993, Tejo Remy designed the iconic „Chest of Drawers”. He assembled different kinds of drawers into an accidental and dynamic composition. I took this idea apart and let the drawers fly free to find their own position in the corner of the room.
