The architect couple Nils (Nisse) Strinning and Kajsa Strinning debuted as designers with a humble plate rack formed from steel wire, a design that would be refined over the years. In 1949 the couple designed the String bookshelf for a competition hosted by publishing company Bonnier and won first prize.
Greater success was quick to follow, in 1954 the String shelving system earned the couple an international design prize, a gold medal at the Milan Triennial. Today String shelving is a mid-century design icon and just as beautiful, functional and desirable as the day it was invented. This variation is a fresh look with acrylic upright panels to create an invisible structure for a floating appearance.
