Shift

Shift by ArteNemus is a chest of drawers based on the shape of a rhombohedron. The tilted geometric outline of the creation suggests instability while seemingly random marquetry bands give the impression of keeping the structure from falling apart. The high contrast combination of African ebony and flamed maple emphasizes the aesthetic tension of the piece. Shift is an object beyond pure function whose high quality craftsmanship emphasize its high-end appearance.

Eckhard Beger, contemporary art furniture designer from Geneva, Switzerland, has gained international recognition for his designs, which emphasize conception, aesthetics and wood art craftsmanship. Since 2012, his creations have been awarded more than 20 international design prizes and his work has appeared in exhibitions in Milan at the Museo Poldi Pezzoli as well as at Venice Design 2016 in the context of the Architecture Biennale and at Venice Design 2017 in the context of the Art Biennale. Eckhard Beger is the founder of ArteNemus Contemporary Art Furniture.
