Designed and developed by Natasha Shtapauk of BT45 German Kitchen Tailors and manufactured in Germany, BT45 The Wall Chicago Edition is a magnificent furniture piece created to break the rules of gravity and design.
This project has been awarded a 2021 Good Design Award by The Chicago Athenaeum: Museum of Architecture and Design and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.
It personifies design without borders and limitations —only a flight of imagination and the most innovative German technologies that allow making any dream, even the most unrealistic design concept, into reality.
“Once you stop striving for symmetry and understanding that you don’t need to have high contrast you realize that you can craft a masterpiece that improves the boring space and adds to it defined elegance,” said Natasha Shtapauk, the lead designer of BT45 German Kitchen Tailors.
“Using the grid system and making sure that there is a sufficient amount of negative space the wall system was created with the focus of the neglected area of the American household -the library.”
The modern history of technological change has significantly influenced library culture. Preserving books for future generations is more important today than ever.
That’s why The Wall has been designed to create a luxurious, stylish yet innovative, and dynamic look. The Wall’s non-binary style will magically complement both modern and traditional spaces.
This sophisticated furniture design concept is based on the beloved design classic of all time — framed wooden doors.
The door fronts are twisted to create the look of levitating cabinets. The top door panel in solid wood rises with a remote control to reveal a hidden bar.
An upright fireplace built into this marvelous bookshelf adds warmth to the ambiance of the entire room.
“The Wall by BT45 will definitely become the focal point of your home, whether you entertain your guests by mixing your special drinks at the bar or snuggle up by the fireplace with a book. We created this masterpiece to revive the reading culture and preserve the book culture for the future generations.”
