Adam Fruh, designer at large, is a man with a fully-realized aesthetic. Completely modern, yet hearkening back to the golden age of human ingenuity, he pieces together these fragments of our industrial past into what can only be described as a vision of our possible future.This little piece is oddly reminiscent of WALL-E, everyone's favorite little post-apocalyptic trash compactor. An assortment of failed filing cabinets have been reassembled, thus deconstructing the very meaning of storage.
Just as WALL-E's quixotic task evokes a directing of our human emotions toward the mechanized, so too do the cabinet's off-90 degree angles disarm. One can only appreciate this thing's willingness to bear the weight of our distractions. The metal exterior hides the first-growth reclaimed fir innards. Will we too maintain a kernel of organic nature as we continue to interface with the machine? Only time will tell, but lets begin our contemplation with this piece. 200$ + s&h
