Stockwerk by Meike Harde appears to negate its material properties. Instead of acting like a hard surface, Stockwerk collapses down like folded paper.

Surprisingly, the shelf needs no assembly, either. The nature of its design allows it to fold and unfold simply using piano hinges. It self stabilizes and creates a system that’s complex in design but simple in execution and function. Plus, it’s customizable because you can fold down some shelves and leave others open.
