About the Item

Elegant and understated, this shelving unit by Walter Wirz for Wilhelm Renz features a U-profile design veneered in rich teak. Known as a hallmark of Swiss modernism, Wirz founded his own studio in 1950, quickly establishing it as a leader in minimalist and functional design. His work earned him numerous awards, including the Jan Tschichold Prize (1988) and the Swiss Design Award (1991). Please feel free to contact us for any additional information. We would be more than happy to assist you in any way we can. Negotiable within reason.
