Futura: A Modular Storage Unit with a Hidden Panel

Futura, by Lulghennet Teklè, is a modular storage unit that moves on wheels. Functional and practical, it’s a stacked system where the shelves can open and close with no preset length. The ground cube has wheels that extend a hidden panel, taking with it the cubes and support panels. The holed lateral panel remains as a “foot” on the floor, making the shelf expandable when the cube is moved.

By not identifying the back or the front, it makes the storage piece more flexible. As a result, Futura can vary in height and length because it can be stacked, or put side by side to create endless storage combinations.
