Honeycomb Modular Shelving
from Heller
honeycomb modular shelving
Design Bill Curry, 1970
100% recycled & regenerative polypropylene, tempered glass
Made in the USA by Heller
American designer Bill Curry's Honeycomb Shelving returns, now reimagined by Heller as a modular system made from 100% recycled and regenerative plastic. A testament to Curry's forward-thinking approach, the Honeycomb Modular Shelf merges space-age innovation with sustainable design, proving that timeless ideas can evolve for the future.
Originally designed in 1970, the shelf reflects the optimism of the California Space Age, where American designer Bill Curry (1927-1971) drew inspiration from aerospace advancements to create bold, futuristic designs. His work captured the era's vision of a future shaped by science and design, where beauty and utility moved in perfect harmony. He captured the zeitgeist of the 1960s and 1970s from his unique Los Angeles vantage point at the meeting point of these ideas. During an era defined by the space race, pop culture, and a new forward-looking optimism, he translated the wonder and delight he saw around him into simple yet intelligent ideas with clear visual narratives. He was recognized as one of California's leading designers by the time he died at the age of just 43.
Built for limitless expansion, the Honeycomb Shelf allows you to add more cells and create a configuration that fits your space. Now enhanced with tempered glass shelves for expanded surface area, it offers even greater versatility. Whether stacked high or arranged wide, its striking form transforms any room. A collector's dream, it provides the perfect way to display family photos, showcase treasured items, organize bathroom essentials, or highlight books, pottery, and other cherished objects. With endless possibilities, it's a statement piece that evolves with your needs. Inspired by the efficiency of honeycombs, the hexagonal structure is engineered to use minimal materials for maximum impact, offering strength, adaptability, and sculptural beauty.
