The Leaf shelf, designed by Jonas Lutz for Form & Refine, is a minimalist and multifunctional storage unit for homes, offices and public spaces. According to Lutz, many flat-packed shelves lack aesthetic value. He therefore set out to create a shelving unit that would simultaneously answer functional and aesthetic requirements: the shelf should be easy to assemble yet sturdy as well as visually pleasing.
