A Selectform System Designed for Interior Architecture

Designed by Poul Nørreklit for Georg Petersens Møbelfabrik in the 1960s, this model from the Selectform series stands out for its particularly architectural approach to furniture. Fully finished on all four sides, it is not limited to a storage function and can be used to structure a space, create a visual separation, or complement an interior design project.

Its design is based on a particularly successful contrast of materials. The transparent acrylic uprights visually lighten the whole and highlight the black lacquered cabinets as well as the brushed aluminum elements. This combination creates a graphic effect characteristic of 1960s Danish design while giving the impression that the various elements are suspended in space.

The eight open shelves offer numerous display possibilities for books, decorative objects, or collections, while the lower cabinets allow everyday storage to be concealed. This combination of display surfaces and enclosed spaces contributes to the model’s versatility.

Thanks to its generous proportions and self-supporting structure, this room divider sideboard naturally finds its place in the center of a room, in a living room, office, gallery, or professional space. It addresses an ever-relevant issue: organizing space without blocking light or weighing down volumes. A quality that explains why this type of storage furniture remains appreciated by interior architects and vintage design enthusiasts.
