High sideboard Framed

Framed is a series of distinctive cabinets with a well-thought-out and detailed construction. The cabinets are specially designed around the material NewspaperWood. The cabinet consists of a solid steel frame which can be supplied as a system in various designs and colours. The coloured frame literally 'carries' the NewspaperWood shelves and thus gives a stage to this special material. The Framed cabinet is designed by Breg Hanssen. Breg and his studio are located in Amsterdam. He designs and realizes custom made furniture and interiors for the most specific needs. A central element in his work is functionality in combination with a fair use of materials. During the design process of the Framed cabinet, Breg was particularly fascinated by the color of the material NewspaperWood. Or rather the "non-color". To emphasize this characteristic, he chose to incorporate the NewspaperWood in a piece of furniture in which he combines it with contrasting "outstanding-colors". The Framed cabinet has been part of the Vij5 collection since 2011. Together with the Sample Series and the Tabloid Tables, the Framed cabinet represents the introduction of the NewspaperWood material in the Vij5 collection. The cabinet is literally designed around the material as a tribute to NewspaperWood. The cabinet has been created in a special way. Where for most designers an idea for a product is the basis for a collaboration with Vij5, in the case of Studio Mieke Meijer it was an idea for a material! The Framed cabinet is made by our metal producer in Bergeijk (NL) . The whole frame is built up as a system of 'compartments' which makes multiple combinations of the cabinet possible.
