UNIKEA or the Unique Collection in Your House

Everyone knows such brand as IKEA. Young London-based designer Kenyon Yeh created his own unique collection UNIKEA using Bria, Dalt, Kenn and Lopa furniture. He bought the furniture in IKEA, threw out the instruction booklets and began to assemble it himself. What was the result of this folly? These are several amazing unions which stress the designer’s originality. The collection consists of four products which have similar ideas in design but look absolutely different from each other. The main geometric shapes used by Kenyon Yeh are rectangle, triangle and trapezium. The UNIKEA collection is represented by two kinds of the cabinet, a bookshelf and a bookstand. They look simultaneously simple and stylish.

Compact bookshelves built into the staircase

This is a very good example of effective space managing that looks great. Book and CD shelves are piled on each other and make up a steep and very compact staircase. There are two rows of shelves for each foot –that’s why it look more like a ladder, but it is actually very comfortable. You wouldn’t have to climb this thing; the consequent steps are on favorable height. The creators thought of safety and attached side nets and metal bars to prevent user from falling.

The idea is very interesting in general – you can put literally anything on those shelves, starting from your family pictures to plants or something else that you have to store somewhere. Even if you don’t need the staircase in your flat, you can still think of building such wall of piled shelves instead of a regular cupboard. Apart from keeping your stuff it looks good and visually partitions your room to multiple zones.
