This amazing staircase is part of an apartment in Bordeaux, France, designed by Mickaël Martins Afonso and L’atelier miel. To maximize space, designers built shelves that provide a storage and display room for small objects. They also included hidden shoe storage that pulls our when needed. How clever!
Every home has awkward areas we do not quite know what to do with. Entryways, spaces beneath the windows, uncomfortable corners… A piece that would humanize those areas would be a blessing for any interior. Meet the Weigel Bench, a recent creation from Square Form, originally made as a shoe rack for the entryway of the client’s home. The understated beauty and functionality of the piece earned it a new licence to live. Made out of noble and natural materials (salvaged 5/4″ western walnut, salvaged Alder, and steel tubing), the Weigel Bench adds class, warmth and a much-needed storage to any space.
