Wave Wine Rack

A wine bottle storage system for a new generation of wine lover.The Wave is designed to represent the rolling hills of wine country and the layers of soil that lay beneath the vineyards that are essential to the distinct characteristics of each bottle.The wavy shelves will house bottles, giving a unique living space for each one. The wave looks pleasant even when not full of bottles. (which is the case for most wine lovers)Finished in a limestone inspired powder coating.

“I had this idea for a while, I saw this design language everywhere in my head and finally had the opportunity to build it in the furniture design class. As a student, I dont have enough wine to fill a whole wine rack, so I thought to design a wine rack that still looks interesting while half empty, and can function as a furniture piece regardless. I have had amazing reception to it and am looking at pursuing getting it manufactured. ”
