Description
Stylish and functional, this is the classic Staples Ladderax mid century shelving system. The gold coloured metal uprights and easy removable supports, allow the teak cabinetry to be positioned wherever required. Ladderax adjustable, modular shelving systems are a true mid century design classic and are very highly sought after today. Ladderax was designed by Robert Heal in 1964 and manufactured by Staples of Cricklewood in London for sale in high end stores like Harrods, Heals, etc. Heal was influenced by the Danish school of design. This mid century Scandinavian design movement was all about reinterpreting simple, linear shapes from earlier design periods and making them ‘simpler’.
This design classic features a single bay of Ladderax with a three drawer chest above a single shelf. Remember that the drawers and shelf can be set at different heights to suit your needs. This particular system has free-standing, rather than wall-leaning, ladders.
The Ladderax system combines upright ‘ladders’ that support shelves and cabinets, which sit on steel rods that hook onto the rungs of the ladders. One of the great benefits of Ladderax over its Scandinavian counterparts is that it doesn’t need to be attached to the wall. The whole set up breaks down easily when it needs to be moved and is so simple to rebuild.
Please note that the lock is absent from the drawer unit.
