Beside trolley
Designed for Mizetto, 2022
Beside is an office trolley conceived as a modular system.
Shelves and drawers can be mounted in different positions, so as to define various configurations for different needs.
Accessories such as hooks, a tools organizer and a magazine rack, can be hanged on the sides of the metal frame adding different functions to the trolley. The system allows to connect more than one trolley together with shelves and drawers, so as to create wider storage solutions on wheels.
In some of our designs we like to play with the idea of allowing the final user to personalize industrial products. In this way, despite the standardization of industrially produced goods, every piece can be slightly different from each other, thanks to the different ways the users interact with them. We like the idea of involving the end user in making choices related to the product. In the case of Beside, users can move, add and remove elements, connect more trolleys together or divide them again, actively contributing to define the product form and function. In our collaboration with Mizetto we pay particular attention to the topic of personalization of the product. We think that personalization is an extremely relevant topic in offices, where people spend a major part of their daily lives. In these contexts we think it’s very important that workers can adjust and adapt their workspace depending on their needs and personal taste, creating a functional and welcoming environment which can adapt to different individuals and contribute to their well being.
