Auerberg - Book Cart

Buenos Aires – eight pushcarts stand in front of a hotel entrance. I Think: could this simple object not move inside? In the taxi the idea becomes a shape, at home I instantly ran to my working desk. Out of the pushcart emerged a mobile side table with a three-floor shelf – made out of a single bleach panel, explained designer Christoph Böninger about the emerging of a books cart.

The book cart consists of four elements: two wooden spars, the bleach for the shelving construction, the wheels and on the back a leather cross so that nothing falls out of it during the transport. Four forms, two colours.

That’s all. Honored with the iF Award 2010.
