The Latest In Sheving,

it appears the shelves have disappeared,

 making them the perfect choice to today's minimalist homes, designed by Japanese duo YOY (Naoki Ono and Yuki Yamamoto) the shelves are being unveiled right now at Milan Design Week, simply titled “Shelf,” the work is a series of products, a vase, bookshelf and photo frame,just seem to hang in midair, how do they do that? 

 well the answer is quite simple if you think about it, the reason the shelf is invisible,

 is that there is no shelf at all!

 “The objects are placed in mid air at an even level to create the perception of a shelf that doesn’t exist,” explains the designers, each object gets attached to the wall and, when combined together, creates the illusion of invisibility, if you’re attending Milan Design Week you can see YOY’s shelf, which is part of a larger exhibition titled Existence. It’s on view through April 14, 2019 at Galleria Clio Calvi Rudy Volpi, so were you fooled into thinking there really was an ‘invisible shelf?’ I should have posted this one on April Fools Day!
