George Nelson‘s Nelson™ Thin Edge Buffet

今天要介绍的是由Herman Miller 首席设计师George Nelson设计，Herman Miller出品的 Nelson™ Thin Edge Buffet。George Nelson的作品超过三十年来影响着现代设计的历史。这款储物柜使用过模板作为材料，以极薄的造型呈现，也是储物柜的名字由来。并且，如今这款产品百分之八十五以上使用可回收材料，其原始的造型和体验，也是其受欢迎之处。

George Nelson was the design director at Herman Miller from 1945 to 1972. His influence over three decades is what made the Michigan-based company what it is today. Not only did Nelson recruit Charles and Ray Eames and Isamu Noguchi, but he also created a portfolio of work without which the history of modern design would be incomplete. Together with designers Irving Harper and John Pile, Nelson introduced the Thin Edge Collection (1952), originally called the Rosewood Case Series, as a refined version of the Basic Cabinet Series from 1946. Striking characteristics include the placement of the wood veneer and the especially thin edges, hence the later name. Made today with environmentally sustainable veneers and 85% recycled materials, Thin Edge takes advantage of the latest manufacturing technologies without compromising its original look and feel. Inside the two-door cabinet there are two adjustable shelves. Self-leveling glides adjust to uneven floor surfaces. This is the authentic Thin Edge Buffet produced by Herman Miller, Inc. Nelson is a trademark of Herman Miller.
