The long-established "Good Design Award" is the only comprehensive evaluation and recommendation system for product design in Japan. The annual awards are also recognised internationally as proof of outstanding quality in functionality and design. This year, the jury praised the FurnSpin for its "revolutionary movement" thanks to the swivelling cabinet body, which introduces a completely new concept for storage space in furniture.

 

FurnSpin: Revolutionary swivel and pivot fitting
Until now, wardrobe furniture was usually fitted with either sliding, folding or hinged doors. The FurnSpin hardware innovation is different. It does away with old design patterns and brings creative momentum to furniture design: open doors or flaps no longer get in the way – the majority of the cabinet body can be moved with ease. With an elegant twist, the furniture reveals its inner workings. With a further twist, the inside of the cabinet disappears from view and the furniture shows closed fronts again. The torque is balanced in such a way that even very light objects do not tip over or slip, but remain in their original place in the unit.

"The Joy of FurnSpin" inspires in all furniture worlds
FurnSpin allows new spatial and furniture concepts with unexpected performance in a design quality that clearly stands out from the standard. The characteristic "spin" is simply a joy and provides users with an emotional, magical furniture experience that leaves a lasting impression. The international recognition of the Japanese Good Design Award 2024 for the versatile system once again confirms the added value that FurnSpin offers for architects, craftsmen and industry – but also for furniture buyers all over the world.
