Inspired by the medieval wall around the small town of Visby, Sweden, the designer noticed the tension between the massive wall and its arch openings. The very shape of the half circle makes the opening in the heavy stone wall possible. Widely used all around the world for centuries the valve shape has become a symbol of an opening enhancing the tension between the outside and the inside. The shape of the arch has now taken a decorative and symbolic place in the Valv vitrine to intensify and frame the inside of the cabinet. Valv means arch in Swedish.
This vitrine can be ordered with a LED stripe in the top. The light is dimmable with a hidden touch sensitive sensor. To turn the light on, you simply touch the side of the right leg.
