breg hanssen: framed newspaper wood cabinet for vij5


'framed' by breg hanssen for vij5

netherlands based designer breg hanssen has created 'framed' for dutch label, vij5.
utilizing panels of newspaperwood, the cabinet adopts a distinctive and indeterminable
appearance that integrates material exploration with an industrial aesthetic.

a rigid metal frame, finished in bright blue, contrasts the recycled paper slabs,
emphasizing the unique color and the small text that is visible between each layer.
with characteristics similar to that of hardwood, the cabinet is both strong and durable,
with a surface that varies from piece to piece and ages over time.

'framed' was presented in the ventura lambrate district during milan design week 2011
with a series of other pieces by vij5.
