Annki Studio — a Russian furniture brand with a Swedish history and the concept of «hidden luxury.» The studio creates pieces that help reveal the uniqueness of an interior. Rationality, conciseness, and moderation are important to the studio.
The objective was to design a new object based on the Clover 2.0 bench and develop it into a series while maintaining the recognizability and logic of the original model.
Stylistic Features of Clover 2.0: — Form simplicity — Clover association — Functionality — Symmetry
side table
Nightstand, needed for storing essential items within easy reach during sleep and rest. It can be used in complete darkness or while semi-asleep.
Scenario: Turning off a ringing alarm clock in the dark or in the morning by touch.
Problem: In a semi-sleepy state, it is easy to bump or shift a bedside table or tip over items placed on it.
Solution: Height level with or slightly above the mattress, rounded safe corners, stable base.
Living Room Shelf Unit
A large-scale floor module designed to be placed in a living room along a wall or as a visual zoning element. It organizes open storage for books, decorative items, and tableware.
Scenario: Filling a bookshelf with heavy books, vases, and decor.
Problem: Long shelves sagging over time under the weight of books, or the risk of the entire shelf tipping forward.
Solution: A rigid and stable frame with supports placed at equal intervals for reliable support. Optimized cell sizing for books and other contents.
Hallway Shelving Unit
A compact shelving unit is designed for narrow entryways at home. It is needed for quick storage and retrieval of essential items upon entering or exiting the house.
Scenario: During assembly, a person needs to quickly grab necessary items.
Problem: Small items can get lost in drawers; a closed design slows down the search.
Solution: The structure must be as light and open as possible, with an ergonomic height «at arm’s reach, ” allowing the item to be grabbed correctly in a second before exiting.
Shelf
Wall-mounted shelving unit for any room (kitchen, bedroom, office). Mounts onto available wall space. Provides local storage and display for items of varying sizes without cluttering usable floor area.
Scenario: When mounting a shelf to the wall, it must appear neat and aesthetic.
Problem: Mounting brackets are often bulky and unattractive, detracting from the interior design.
Solution: Create invisible shelf supports while simultaneously lightening and simplifying the shelf’s design.
Acoustic Stands
Floor-standing speakers are used in living rooms to dampen unwanted vibrations, placed on either side of the screen or seating. Position audio speakers at the listener’s ear level for a proper acoustic stage.
Scenario: When installing an audio system, it is important that the height and footprint of the stand suit the speaker.
Problem: The speakers do not fit on the platform, and the height does not match head level.
Solution: Select universal stand dimensions that fit most speakers.
