The 'Grate Module' Makes Furniture Using Minimal Materials

— July 17, 2017 — Art & Design
Furniture is often made from a series of components, portions and pieces, but the 'Grate Module' changes this with a design that simply utilizes one unit in an innumerable number of ways. The L-shaped Grate fits into the various slots that are incorporated into the unit, which works to create seating and tables in a multitude of different designs. This means you're able to make whatever you want with the same equipment and simply add or subtract portions as you see fit.

The 'Grate Module' furniture design equipment is the design work of Vasyl Maletych and creates artistic pieces of furniture that look more like artwork than functional pieces of decor for the home. The Grates have been design in a number of different colors in order to make them suitable for any kind of design aesthetic in the home.
