I posted this back in 2005 but I just found it available for purchase so I thought it was worthy of a post again.

The brains at ding3000 created this “Billy Wilder” shelf intended for making Ikea’s ubiquitous “Billy” shelving unit “wilder”. You can view their portfolio here.

What a great, simple file cabinet with an affordable price tag to boot:

Stainless drawer grips and four casters with front-drive brakes. Two drawers top a letter/legal file.

• Durable steel sheet construction with stainless steel handles
• Powder-coat finish
• One letter/legal file drawer; two additional storage drawers
• Four 2″ casters; brakes on the front two
• Wipe clean with a damp cloth

So, this isn’t exactly something you might buy on a whim, (due to the unwieldly size and price tag) but it’s a pretty great piece if you have the space for it. It’s upholstered in leather and has two independently articulated movements on each of the four sections. This creates the ability to create a very configurable seating arrangement.

There are only a few of these left, so if you want one, you better jump on it.

“These ornate shelves made of plastic are the perfect combination of classical lines and modern chic. Lightweight and durable, these shelves make a statement in any room.”

I don’t know if I can justify the price of this for you or not, but I do believe it is quite interesting, and perhaps some of you can appreciate the novelty of storage and seating combined into one chair with a nice contrasting color to highlight the space.
