LAIN : simple shelf design

Brilliant and simple design for a shelf by LAIN, based in Spain.

LAIN is composed of only 3 shelves and 4 rods and 12 safety stops. This developed using an anchoring system based on the tensions exerted on the parts, avoiding additional fixing elements such as screws or adhesives and use of assembly tools.

Its packaging is part of the assembly process making it more comfortable and intuitive.
The materials used are totally respectful of the environment.

We had the opportunity to work with Elaine and Josh on their entire wedding, from designing and engraving the invitations on through all of the reception materials. Really great folks, we loved working with them.

Their wedding was recently featured on Style Me Pretty — here are a few photos capturing the beautiful scene at New York City’s Ft Tryon Park and New Leaf Cafe. Browse the full gallery on SMP.

I’ll be sure to share more photos of the invitations when we have the images ready!

Yellowstone exploded my mind with scenery and wildlife. A few more shots from our canyon lookouts and an evening drive for spotting wildlife. LOVE THIS PLACE.

Old Faithful delighted. But these technicolor geysers and springs were just as awesome!
