British architect Alison Smithson designed the Cornell Boxes in 1988. She was inspired by Joseph Cornell, the American artist who collected and carefully juxtaposed found objects in simple, usually glass-fronted boxes. Only recently German based furniture manufacturer, Tecta, has started production of these storage boxes. The display boxes have quite unusual and very creative design and come in three variations: a single tabletop version, a single floor standing version or a double floor standing version. Their fronts are open and there are little shelves for storage slotted into them. The boxes sat atop an iron stands. If you’re in search of modern and interesting decorative wall boxes, these are really a nice option for you.
