The Danish Modern style has been very popular in the world of furniture design as many companies--big and small--have been producing chic and minimalist offerings that take cues from it. One great example is the family-owned Sibast Furniture who collaborated with artist Kasper Eistrup on the "multifunctional furniture series XLIBRIS."
The entire project began as a personal venture by Kasper Eistrup who wanted "a workplace shelf that doesn't look like a typical shelf bracket." Aside from the influence of the Danish Modern style, XLIBRIS draws inspiration from the art of origami. XLIBRIS boldly presents a wall-mounted desk and a shelf as a set that effortlessly accents the home environment.
