Designated Shelving System

Designing a modular shelving system guided by co-relation between three spaces in a Furniture design studio - Discussion Area, Workstation Area and Model Making Area. Dividing the system with respect to the usage typologies - Small scale models, Display board (Mood Board/ Material Board), Books, Catalogues and Samples and designing for each item in a way that it caters specific use, dimension and load capacity which helps in de-cluttering and organising day-to-day working at a design studio. Understanding the varied difference in dimensionality of each item, making the shelving system in a way that the shelves can easily be adjusted at different heights and the system can be expanded on need basis. Keeping the sustainability factors - Modularity, Mass-Production and Universality - as the guiding principles to optimise usage of materials, space and production technique.
