'steig' shelf | Michael Hilgers
the laddershelf- or is it a shelfladder...? Berlin / Germany / 2015

steig (German word for "climb") is a minimalistic bookshelf which reminds us of an archetypic ladder.
It's height is more than 2.5 m; So you actually have to climb the steps to reach for books which are placed on the top boards.
steig does not need any screws or high tech-connectors: The traditional mortise and tenon connections are secured by wedges made from solid copper.
steig premieres on IMM Cologne 2015
