Nisse Strinning

- STRING - Bokhyllan "The Ladder Shelf"

The architect Nisse Strinning was born in 1917. From 1940 to 1947 he studied architecture in Stockholm, before he designed the legendary String shelving system. Since its launch in 1949, the String System has received more the 15 prestigious international awards.

The minimalistic and economical design is still timeless after 60years. String is simple to assemble and the shelves can be easily repositioned. Due to the 100s of combination options, string is perfect for any room.

This furniture can be considered as one of the icons of scandinavian design history.

Nisse Strinning passed by in 2006, but his legacy is still alive.

In the 1970s he purchased the castle SCHLOSS HACKHAUSEN and managed his own showrooms in Karlsruhe, Düsseldorf, München and Zürich. For several decades since the 1960s he has promoted artistic tapestries. Kröner included a number of complementary activities within his remit, such as editor, manufacturer and weaver, but was also able to include that of distributor and designer as well. His major event was the participation in the German Pavillon at the 1970 Osaka Expo. Today Ewald Kröners tapestries are part of art collections and can be seen in several museums.
