Made of folded steel, the boxes are powder-coated in six different colours: white, grey, rose, rust, green and blue.

"I became tired of looking at unattractive book covers on the shelves and therefore decided to find a solution which could not only contribute with some color in the room but also be a way to store things practically," says Henriette W. Leth.

The Color Boxes are sold individually and can be stacked in any combination on the floor or hung on the wall separately.

The boxes can be placed on top of one another loosely, and the weight of the boxes and the contents inside keeps them in place.
