Doppler

Doppler is a modern re-imagining of the ubiquitous bookcase. Its vertical supports are set at decreasing and then increasing distances apart to reference the Doppler Effect (a scientific principle describing the change in frequency of a light or sound wave in relation to an observer moving relative to the wave source). The outcome is a bookcase with an almost dynamic aesthetic, that breaks free of the monotony of standard storage solutions.
