STRUCTURE COLLECTION

Inspired by the architectural modern masterworks of Tadao Ando, I.M. Pei and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Folgenhaüs bespoke audio furniture exudes a minimalistic style that is both buoyant and decidedly monolithic.

FOLGENHAÜS = HEIRLOOM

While our component shelves & amplifier racks are specifically designed with audio performance features, the aesthetic & finish-quality is that of some of the finest furniture available. Meticulously & painstakingly sanded to a glass-like finish, the solid hardwood is then hand brushed with multiple coats of all-natural tung oil for a lifetime durability and enjoyment.

The sidewalls of all 3 tiers are built together, then inlaid with solid brass bar. This fine furniture building technique allows the grain pattern to “waterfall” down the sides, plus produces exacting precision on the brass inlay alignment. The sidewalls are then cut to length after a first round of sanding is completed. Large Japanese master woodworking-style mortise & tenon joints connect the uppers & cross shelves without the use of any screws & connective hardware.

The double-wide component shelves shown below were made from rock maple and custom-stained with a medium-tinted American walnut stain per our client’s specifications. Solid 1” x 1/4” brushed brass bar inlay & adjustable 2”D x 1.5”H solid brass footers are featured. Dimensions: 48” Width x 22.5” Depth. x 32” Height (13” top shelf + 13” middle shelf + 6” bottom shelf including 1.5”H solid brass footers below bottom shelf).
