The 'for a fleeting moment' mobile shelves have a unique illumination feature. Tokyo-based product and furniture designer Bijin Davis came up with the idea of shelves that illuminate one and other with pale gradients of color. The modular furniture was inspired by the idea of having a new appearance when one's surroundings shift.
The shelves are standard white when they are on their own. However, when the use stacks them together, they illuminate each other with color for a few moments at a time. The shelves are constructed from aluminum pipes, aluminum composite boards, and fluorescent painted gradients of color to create the desired effect. The shelves are aptly named to reflect the fleeting moments of color showcased throughout the design.
