The Frames Collection by Francesco Raimondi is a range of customizable [wireframe furnishings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/usm-haller-reframed) that include chairs, couches, bookshelves, storage units, coffee tables and more.

These minimalist furniture creations add a modern accent to a simplistic home interior while allowing users to customize them for a variety of uses. Each piece in the Frames collection is carefully framed out of iron materials. The caged elements are structurally sound but are left hollow, allowing users to transform a traditional chair into a clever book-holder or a storage shelf that displays other loose objects.

Roman designer Francesco Raimondi presented his latest collection at the [Salone del Mobile](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salone-del-mobile) 2013. The multifunctional line of [iron objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sfso-1) features a light and transparent design that allows for endless user possibilites.
