The project
As part of the master's modules in digital fabrication, CNC and hybrid technologies that we taught in 2022, we made a modular shelving unit together with students at the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia. The piece combines height-adjustable shelves with side accessories for storing various items.
Archicercle's contribution brought together teaching and collaborative making with the students. The shelving unit translated the classroom's digital fabrication work into a piece of furniture, combining an MDF structure with complementary clear acrylic components.
The MDF structure was laser-cut. A series of openings in the sides allows the shelves to be set at different heights: adjustment is built into the configuration of the components, allowing the vertical arrangement of the storage space to change.
Alongside the main structure, we made clear acrylic components to fit along the sides. These accessories add lateral storage spaces to the shelf surfaces, bringing both materials together in a single solution.
The openings in the sides provide different positions for the shelves.
Clear acrylic components extend the storage space along the sides.
