Kabino is a collection of simple, functional and versatile storage units. Designer Simon Legald has given them distinctive handles, which nicely punctuate the uniform surfaces of the doors.
Simon Legald: "I like to work at the crossroads of craft and industry. When you buy a modern sideboard, it's often designed in a purely artisanal or totally industrial spirit. With Kabino, I explored manufacturing methods and various combinations of materials so that Kabino has a bit of both.
Materials Ash, MDF and aluminium
Kabino comes flat-packed and can be assembled using the manual and tools supplied.

Simon Legald
Simon Legald graduated from The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in the summer of 2012. His work consists of both small- and large scale products. Simon’s designs are often created in a dialogue between craftsmanship and industry. He also likes to incorporate the techniques that are necessary for the structure of a product into the design by highlighting them visually.
“Honesty is what makes a product understandable and is what describes the products functionality. If you understand the product, it does not need any explanation. The essence of my design is for it to be bought and used. Therefore, it has to satisfy not only the functional aspects, but also the psychological and aesthetic needs. For me simplicity describes the true identity of objects and makes them trustworthy. In my design, I try not to add any unnecessary details. I work with simplicity by highlighting the necessities instead of hiding them. It gives the product a simple and honest expression.”
