Crate Series 6-8 | Established & Sons

The elementary properties of a found wine crate continue to inspire Jasper Morrison and they are apparent again in these three latest additions to his Crate Series. The multifunctional characteristics of series 1-5 are now complemented by the more defined typology of Crate Series 6, 7 and 8 in the form of Bookshelf, Wardrobe and Low Chair. All are constructed from the same solid pine whilst the familiar fabric hinge is also used on the wardrobe doors and ingeniously on the chair - linking multiple wooden slats to form a seat and back which then rests on a generous tubular steel frame. The emphasis on honest materials, proportion and usability is the thread that links this whole series and its evolution is a fascinating insight into how the most basic of found, functional objects can inspire a focused and cohesive collection of furniture.
