Ledge
The Parmigiano Reggiano® Design Challenge 2021
Authenticity
The Ledge is inspired by the notion of expressing authenticity in a furniture object by soliciting authority over the pleasures of tasting fine wines and cheeses as a sensual experience.
Concept
The Ledge concept is realized in three objects, each exploring ‘ledges’ in the presentation, tasting, and storage of wines, liquors, and cheese.
The Ledge is semantically linked to the ancient process of maturing wines and cheeses on natural outcroppings or ‘ledges’ in caves and cellars.
Description
Suitable for indoor or outdoor use, the ‘Ledge’ units can be utilized as singular furniture elements or combined to form wall and space-defining freestanding layouts.
• Ledge Select : arranges multiple horizontal ledges to present and store wines and liquors.
• Ledge Taste : combines upper ledges with a tasting surface for cheeses and appetizers.
• Ledge Store : combines upper ledges with lower bottle niches for vintage storage.
Each ‘Ledge’ is a self supporting structural form manufactured in the rotational molding process utilizing a bio-degradable linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) polymer.
