SEQUENCE is not just shelving. It’s a spatial narrative—an architectural gesture shaped by rhythm, progression, and variation. Developed by Snøhetta, the system comprises six modular units, available as wall-mounted or freestanding elements. Its open compositions and refined proportions allow Sequence to function as divider, display, or sculptural structure—responsive to domestic, office and public settings.
“Sequence is conceived not simply as storage, but as a spatial instrument—designed to build environments through composition, contrast, and continuity. Each element balances openness and structure. As they interact with light and shadow, their presence shifts.”
— Marius Myking, Snøhetta
Each piece is made from 6 mm Arpa® high-pressure laminate and custom Hydro® recycled aluminium connectors. Typically used as cladding, Arpa® is here reimagined as a load-bearing material. The surface is composed of 60–70% paper layers and 30–40% thermosetting resins, including bio-based formulas such as Bloom. Durable, matte, and tactile, it is engineered for high-performance and structural precision.

“We aimed to transform a surface material into a structural element. The result is a system that challenges expectations through simplicity, material efficiency, and a design optimised for flat-pack and easy assembly.”
— Ángel Valiente, Snøhetta
SEQUENCE is offered in a curated palette of five Arpa® colours: Terracotta red, Silver-grey, Greyish-green, Mustard yellow, and Dark blue—each finish blending chromatic depth with architectural tactility.
Sizes range from 460 mm to 1800 mm in width, and up to 1800 mm in height, supporting multiple typologies—from low horizontal arrangements to tall vertical structures.
RASTERS, designed by OFFICE Kersten Geers David Van Severen in collaboration with Muller Van Severen, redefines modular furniture through architectural clarity and sculptural sensibility. The collection includes paravents and cabinets structured around a modular beech wood grid—eschewing industrial materials in favour of more sustainable and expressive alternatives.
RASTERS originates from a simple yet powerful concept: using an industrial grid commonly employed in architecture as the structural basis for a family of modular paravents and cabinets. However, after recognising the environmental impact of the original material, the team replaced it with natural varnished solid beech, combined
with veneered beech MDF shelves and powder-coated steel for the doors, back panels, drawers, and paravent elements. This shift not only enhances the collection’s sustainability but also introduces new aesthetic and strategic flexibility. The black polyamide injection-moulded connectors take advantage of the grid, allowing installation wherever needed, and enabling the system to grow horizontally without limit

The system’s open composition and coloured elements reflect OFFICE and Muller Van Severen’s distinctive chromatic sensibility, creating pieces that are both light and emotionally engaging. Designed to respond to contemporary needs for organisation and spatial division, RASTERS combines timeless aesthetics with functionality and structural clarity—equally suited to domestic, work, or hybrid environments.
“RASTERS proposes a new way to divide, organise, and animate space—not through mass, but through rhythm and openness.”
Both collections will be previewed at Copenhagen Design Week, June 2025, as part of OTHER CIRCLE, a curated platform that explores cross-disciplinary approaches to contemporary design culture. On June 19, BD Barcelona joins Snøhetta for a live panel exploring post-disciplinary collaboration.
