Invader by Maria Bruun

Danish designer Maria Bruun has designed the Invader storage system.

Invader consist of a number of modules that fit perfectly into each other. When using them separately, each module has a wonderful character to it and is somewhat a statement piece for your living room.

Maria explains, “The light long-legged aesthetic makes us question gravity and strength of the wooden legs, but a metal core in the construction provides maximal strength and allows the clean and simple, almost rigorous character of the furniture to stand out.”

Maria Bruun recently showed Invader at the Temporary/Contemporary design exhibition at Pakhus 48 in Copenhagen.

“The stackable storage modules have a variation of three sizes and three basic functions; the drawer, the cabinet, and the surface. These three functions are the basic storage needs. A cabinet or drawer where we can hide the things that we do not want the world to see and a surface where we can stage the objects and stories we want the world to see.”

Maria is inspired by the modern users’ needs and ways of living, “How do we tell stories and stage our life and identity though our storage and collected objects. The project revolves around individual ways of living, collecting and creating what constitutes “home”.”

Materials: Maple wood and steel profiles.
