“And the Winner is …”: And again the answer is BRIC from PALMBERG. The German Design Council honoured PALMBERG with the ‘ICONIC AWARD 2018: Innovative Interior – Winner’ for its order system BRIC. In addition to the German Design Award 2018 in the segment Excellent Product Design for BRIC, PALMBERG once again showed its high design quality for future-oriented office furniture by winning the ICONIC AWARD 2018: Innovative Interior. For, as the Germans say, ‘order is a must’ (Ordnung muss sein)
The ICONIC AWARDS are an international architecture and design competition that focuses on the interplay of disciplines. It honours visionary architecture, innovative products and sustainable communication from all branches of architecture, the building and property industry and the production. The award was launched by the German Design Council, one of the leading competence centres for communication and knowledge transfer in the field of design worldwide.
About Bric
The BRIC system is highly flexible and provides the classic arrangement for DIN formats and office utensils. BRIC consists of three main components. It includes a plastic tray (BRIC), various steel organisers and matching felt mats for laying the drawer bottom. The plastic tray with useful indentations for small items forms the basis for all drawer arrangements. Division within the drawer is created by the use of different, powder-coated steel plates.
The organisers are shaped according to the intended use. There are straight and angled sheets for the creation of differently sized compartments. Another special feature of BRIC is the great number of special holders, e.g. for drinking bottles, mugs and other personal things. BRIC also allows for electrification and so augments the basic functionality. The storage space now also becomes a charging station at the workplace.
“Clean Desk” by BRIC
Bric supports Clean Desk
The wide variety of the BRIC range is rounded off by removable sets functioning like a tray. These trays, equipped with the daily necessities, are taken out of the personal container in the morning and available for work immediately. In the evening, one grip is enough to make use of ‘Clean Desk’ at the workplace. You open the drawer, put the BRIC tray inside, lock – and the new tidiness in the workplace is restored.
