Description

Seven individual elements are connected into a shelf. Round Off is available in two versions: as a wall- mounted shelf and as a freestanding shelf, which can also be used as a room divider. Notice the final Shelf will be send as one part, welded.
All segments have different dimensions, resulting in spaces of varying sizes, while the spaces between the connections have the same dimensions, which gives the diver- sity of the segments a structure/order. The overlaps create additional levels on which objects can be displayed.
The edges of the individual elements that merge with another element are rounded, while the corners that remain unconnected stay sharp. The symbolism behind this is that in order to form a connection, both sides must become a bit softer, rounder. We do not have to give up our individuality; we can preserve some of our edges and corners and still occupy our own space. And if we allow it and open ourselves a bit to the other, we can see ourselves as a great whole, a collective artwork in which each person can remain true to themselves and find their important place within the whole structure.
A beautiful contrast emerges between the planar outline and the space. The view of the edges creates an almost graphic silhouette. The depth of the chambers and the resulting hollow spaces of the connecting elements reveal spaces with dynamic shad- ows and color gradients.

About Mike Wirthensohn Visit Showroom →

Becoming a Designer was a long journey for me. I fought my way through all kinds of jobs, but none of them ever truly fulfilled me. That’s why I could never stick with any of them for long. The only thing that truly interested me and managed to capture my full attention was design. At first, the idea of becoming a designer seemed completely utopian to me, and I thought it was reserved only for certain people. But that soft voice inside me grew louder year after year. My desire to become a designer grew stronger and stronger. I began teaching myself how to design objects, studied Interior architecture for three semesters, and eventually started my bachelor’s degree in product design at the age of 39 at HfG Offenbach – probably the best decision of my life. Since then, I have been following my true calling, and work as a fulfilled designer. I create my designs deep from the bottom of my heart, with complete dedication. I am convinced that this value can be seen and felt in my work.
