An Affordable New Furniture Series for All Generations
Since its founding in 1937, German manufacturer Interlübke has introduced numerous innovative products, focusing on beds, cabinets, partitions, shelves, and wardrobes. Their 'functional wall' concept, influenced by the Bauhaus philosophy of functionality, rationality, and simple design, allows for flexible planning tailored to modern living, thanks to an unparalleled range of components (walls, shelves, back panels, etc.) and unit combinations.
Unveiled at the imm Cologne furniture fair in January 2010, 'algo' is a simple and easily coordinated storage system. Its wide variety of sizes allows for diverse combinations, adapting to any scene in the living room, dining room, or bedroom.
The design is by Rolf Heide, a towering figure in German design, and Peter Kräling, who emerged from Heide's studio. Rolf Heide has not only designed products for numerous renowned manufacturers like COR and bulthaup but has also directed catalogs and advertising, and handled spatial design.
