It is a completely modular shelving system model called “ergo,” designed by john texmon and einar blindheim for blindheim møbelfabrikk.

the overall set size is h: 188 / w: 83.5 / d: 36 cm.

it features a practical cabinet with four drawers and an inner shelf, a display cabinet with a characteristic pattern, and two open shelves for books and decorative objects. Slightly curved cabinets make an organic, warm impression, and sculptural rails create an elegant and grand-looking statement. This piece is perfect for a living room, bedroom, or hallway. It creates a very decorative, sculpture-like effect. 

the set includes:
- 2 shelves 21 cm depth,
- a cabinet with four drawers h: 43 / w: 78.5 / d: 35.5 cm, drawers inner height 8 cm,
- a display cabinet h: 43 / w: 78.5 / d: 23.5 cm,
