bordbar – the name has been synonymous with the transformation of authentic airplane trolleys into timeless design objects for private use since 2006. Customers include not only design enthusiasts but also big companies who use these functional trolleys at trade fairs for promotional and marketing purposes.
bordbar is rooted in a deep passion for using old furniture in different contexts. It all started out with old cinema seats and steel lockers. After a while some airplane trolleys made their way into the mix. The idea to transform this discarded industry product into a piece of design furniture was more than well received. So well received, actually, that it lead to founding the business in 2006 with the modest number of 287 trolleys. From a small Me Inc. it took bordbar only five years to grow into a global player. The sought-after design award red dot for bordbar’s silver edition is proof for the trolleys’ high quality of design.
The Cologne-based label sets a new benchmark with its bordbar cube edition and opens up a new dimension of versatility. Instead of a trolley serving as an individual piece of vertical furniture bordbar cube claims the horizontal space as a sideboard.
Whether positioned as a solitary box, an addition to a group, next to each other, on top of each other, on the ground or on the wall: bordbar cube stays flexible, whatever your interior design needs.
The arrangement of the modular elements as a shelf unit is possible in countless combinations. Additional spacers allow for three dimensional design ideas. A choice of 8 different colour hues gives every arrangement a further option of individualisation.
The interior of every cube is equipped with perfectly fitted guide-rails for shelves and drawers. As with all bordbar products the interior equipments is combinable, exchangeable and expandable.
The Cologne-based design label stays true to itself with bordbar cube. The origins of this multi-functional container can also be found in the aviation industry. Quality workmanship and materials such as aluminium and stainless steel ensure perfect order on board. Once more, bordbar transfers an elegantly modified aviation product from airplanes to living quarters and manages to set new standards yet again.
The bordbar model cube has been announced winner of the “Interior Innovation Award 2014” in advance to the International Furniture Fair in Cologne.
