Raw Edges
Stack
Manufacturer: Established & Sons
Designed by the design duo Yael Mer and Shay Alkalay AKA Raw Edges. These individual, multi- coloured, ‘floating’ drawer units are built up to different heights, creating a tower of drawers that can be pushed and pulled in both directions. This will often result in a random and irregular formality that is both fascinating and unusual to the eye. Positioned against a wall or in the centre of a room Stack creates a rich and wonderful spectacle of colour and form. It can be appreciated from all angles as a sculptural object as well as an entirely functional, practical item of furniture.

curvaceous functional forms,” while Mer “is fascinated by how
things move, function and react.”
