No Screws No Glue is a modern furniture collection by the prolific Dutch designer Joost van Bleiswijk and the capsule—which includes a buffet and a cabinet—was on show during this year's Milan Design Week.
As implied by the name, the construction of the cabinet and buffet require no screws or glue. One must simply slide the components of the furniture pieces into each other like puzzle pieces. The material that the designer employed to produce the cabinet and buffet is called Richlite which is an eco-conscious and durable choice. Richlite is " made from recycled paper, responsibly harvested trees, and EcoBind resin."
Joost van Bleiswijk designed the No Screws No Glue collection for the furniture brand Moooi. The cabinet and buffet fall under the luxury furniture category and the designs are truly timeless.
