LKD Gravity Powered Bookshelf

Leo Kempf designed this shelf while studying at the University of Kansas.

I wanted to design a useful piece of furniture to store things I find in my workspace including binders, papers, CDs, books, and misc.

This distinctive piece combines function with a form that demands attention.  The angled nature breaks up it's environment.  It creates tension in the space because it appears unstable, but is actual well balanced empty or loaded.
