The Alfred Magazine Rack is a contemporary holder and organizer that has been subtly tweaked in order to make it even more practical than it already is. A handle has been added to make it easier for people to move it around the home or office. Although a simple addition, to say the least, it really makes a difference.
Designed by DesignByThem in collaboration with Seaton Mckeon, the Alfred Magazine Rack boasts a minimalist design made out of powder-coated aluminum. Available in four colors including black, white, blue and yellow, it will complement many existing decors. Mckeon writes, "Its design is focused on lasting durability and functionality. The inspiration for Alfred came from the cartoon-like aesthetics and industrial functionality that is reminiscent of cranes and cherry pickers."
