Everyone can use more storage, whether at home, at work or in a retail environment. But who wants to spend hours putting together a shelf? Ossa offers maximum flexibility for minimum effort. The bottom of each module snaps to the top of another. No tools necessary. The dimensions accommodate books, vinyl records, file folders, or display objects. Stack several layers against a wall or leave them freestanding to create a room divider. The back is as gorgeous as the front.
David Geckeler and Frank Michels met in design school and decided to form a joint studio in 2013. “We realized that we each needed a sparring partner,” says Michels. After all, “Design is a dialogue,” observes Geckeler. The Berlin-based duo approaches each project by asking questions, investigating new technologies, and exploring different material options. The resulting work is bold, simple, and sculptural.
when more is more
Our Ossa storage module is wonderful on its own, but even better when you customize it. Add a door. Top with a cork element to make the module into a comfortable seat. Use the leather inlay to showcase a treasured object. Firmly connect two modules with a metal clip. Mix and match. The possibilities are endless.

The inspiration for Ossa was a folded cardboard moving box. Ossa is also produced by folding, but it is made of durable steel instead of cardboard. It is robust and long lasting. The cutouts on the side, also a nod to the moving box, make the Ossa easy to carry and lift.
