At the origin of simple practical furniture, suspended storage is now widely used in modern and contemporary decor.

Along the entire wall and unloaded unnecessary accessories, they often turn into decorative objects in themselves. Elsewhere, we see them adorned with design objects: ultra-modern statuettes, symmetrically arranged ceramic vases or contemporary design bedside lamps.
