Danish design team Preben Fabricius and Jørgen Kastholm—who have achieved worldwide recognition for their unique aesthetics and sculptural understanding—are now joining Carl Hansen & Søn's collection of classic designer furniture with their flexible and timeless FK Bookcase System. The flexible FK Bookcase System consists of square modules in two depths. The bookcase can hang on the wall or sit on the floor, and be rotated so that the shelves are either tall or wide. Depending on the combination, it is thereby possible to create a stringent or more dynamic look. Moreover, the bookcase can be customised with shelves, drawers and doors depending on requirements. The minimalist and ingenious design of the units pays homage to proud craftsmanship traditions, among other things by highlighting the beautiful mortise joints, which are a key element in the Bookcase design—beautiful and stable.
The Bookcase System is made of solid oak at Carl Hansen & Søn's factory in Gelsted on Funen, Denmark, and it takes many hours of painstaking joinery work before the finished shelves can be shipped to customers worldwide. Sanding the beautiful mortise joints to produce a smooth and silky-soft surface is a particularly time-consuming process. The installation of the doors also requires extreme precision, and they are adjusted by hand to ensure perfect symmetry. The drawers are always made of ash, which contrasts elegantly with the oak. A spring ball catch is fitted at the bottom of each door, producing a discreet click when the door is closed.
In this configuration we have three bookases and 10 shelves.
