Infinity is a shelf system that can be adapted to various situations. It can trace curved walls or corners in simple or complicated configurations.

Infinity is a wall-mounted shelf system that fits into curves and corners by means of supple yet resistant plywood laths set on an alignment of brackets. Once mounted, it can appear to stretch to infinity. It comes in a kit form so that the user is able to assemble it according to the dimensions of the intended space. Accessories such as a bookend can contain various types of elements. The basic module is 1500 mm long, 350 mm wide and 70 mm thick, but it can be lengthened or shortened. The kit is packed in a compact manner for shipping. The plywood laths are made from birch, and the brackets are lacquered metal.
