Anyone wanting to gain some space will always have to think around corners too. Strangely enough, lots of shelf units and cabinets wouldn’t even dream of doing this. Because, however, rooms do have lots of lovely nooks and crannies just waiting to be used, 40S deliberately makes an exception here. And when deciding for or against a piece of furniture that is definitely a substantial feature.
Don’t worry about perforated rails. They’ve been taken care of. We’ve altered the design so the holes
simply vanish in the rails and don’t bother you.
We’ve also made the most of the outside walls of 40S when it comes to looks. And so we come to the “beautiful standard” version (upper left corner) or to the “even more attractive doubled up” and finally to the “oho, fancy, a cloaking strip” version.
Here you can see 40S as a display case from up close. Here you’ll also see that 40S isn’t just a pretty piece of furniture, but a light object, too. This is made possible by — slight flourish — light shelves, where it’s precisely not the usual little lamps providing a dim glow. No, as the name already says, they light up. And properly at that.
Drawers were invented for all those people with a few more bits and pieces. If you’ve got too many CDs and DVDs the right compartments will help. There are suitably small trays for odds and ends. Lined with velour, they protect all those things, whatever they are, that scratch easily. And the large-size drawers are perfect for files in the office.

One of the special features of 40S is the option for combining drawers and doors with each other. Firstly, whichever way you like; secondly, with the guarantee that it’ll always look good. The different types of handles — which nonetheless match perfectly — make sure of this. The recessed handles and grip profiles are available in all matt lacquers and
in polished aluminium.
Good things come in . . . ? Five types of handles for you to choose from. The handgrip is available in anthracite lacquer, polished aluminium or highgrade steel colours.
Next : the waisted handle knob in lacquered anthracite or polished aluminium. Its face matches the front
of your 40S, which means it’s coloured or made of wood.
Then we have in our range the retractable handle knob that retracts completely into the door and reappears when you give it a light tap.
The recessed handle comes in polished aluminium and in all matt lacquers,
the handle strip comes in polished aluminium and off-white, crystal white, black and anthracite-coloured lacquer.
The doors are given a different look
with the handle strip. It’s supplied in shining aluminium, white-grey, crystal white, black and anthracite lacquer.
There’s not one colour we couldn’t supply 40S in, and nearly all colours are available in high gloss and matt. You can also find our range of options with glass and mirrors on this page. If the sight of this isn’t enough then you’re more than welcome to come and see us in our showroom!
Apart from plenty of colours, glass and mirrors, you can choose between a total of seven different types of wood. 40S is especially stylish with leather-covered doors. The leather comes in black, white, sludge, mid-brown and brown. And if there’s anyone for whom this still isn’t choice enough : we can cover your doors with fabric, too.
Where once kitchens, living and dining rooms were all carefully separated, today we prefer to enjoy openness and space. The walls have gone. But so have those well-known places to put things. So what do we do with all the bits and pieces we hang on to? The answer is 40S. Outside it’s just as generously designed as the homes of today. Inside there’s enough room for TVs and stereos, crockery, games, books ... simply for everything that used to be stuffed into all sorts of chests of drawers, display cases and cupboards. As we said: used to be.
Granted, with an all-rounder like 40S we’ll be faced with a couple of tricky questions sooner or later. Is it the generous, variable layout that makes
us like it so much? Or is it more the umpteen different surface finishes, shelf positions and colours that help us to
put our truly individual and unmistakable 40S together and make it ours alone? And what about those spacious functional TV elements, where even tomorrow’s most extravagant flat screens will still find plenty of room? But in the end, does it really matter?
No one home is like another. No one person is like another. Why should it be otherwise with their furnishings? We make 40S with a myriad of different drawers and handles, with glass doors and textile, high gloss, matt lacquer
or veneer finishes, all of which you can soon forget about — apart from that particular one that suits you and your style of living to a T.
If you’re someone who can’t decide whether 40S actually does look better with open elements or with closed
ones: then just have both! 40S is designed so that each and every combination goes well with each other . You don’t even have to do without drawers. On the contrary: have you already noticed how beautifully blended the transitions between the grip profiles for the drawers and the recessed handles for the doors are ?

Be honest: how many things do you own? A couple of hundred? More than
a thousand? Researchers have done their sums: in an average home there are usually not less than fifteen thousand objects. Among them you’ll find plenty of practical and valuable things, but also some things that for reasons both quirky and personal you just can’t bring yourself to part with. But then
you don’t have to. Since in a 40S everything will find the best place imaginable.
The phrase “I’ll just drop by the office” is given a whole new life when the workplace no longer looks like overtime but like a place where you enjoy being. 40S is brilliant to use for all those things you need in the office. Suddenly you’re always happy to take out those suspension files again, the printer cartridges and even the ever popular income
tax papers that you have to keep for
ten years.
We don’t know if you like your Martini shaken or stirred. Neither can we say whether you actually prefer Bordeaux or Burgundy. But we are pretty certain you
do have taste and good friends, a love of pleasure and thus the best prerequisites for treating yourself to a private bar, a luxury as discreet as it is widely underrated. In any case the purchase
of a 40S is the best argument in favour of it! Cheers!
There are some things that are so
fine you like showing them off. Others are best stored away because they
are mainly practical. This is why the display cabinet was once invented. Glasses and collections of cups could
be presented attractively, while it
was just as easy to put dishes and cutlery discreetly out of sight. A job incidentally that 40S performs not
only in unusually fine style but also to extremely good account.
“Endless” is indeed a big word, but where the potential variations of the
40S are concerned, we just can’t
think of a better one. For instance, did we mention the shelves with flexible adjustment? Or the 50 centimetre-deep TV and bar elements?
By the way, if this variety is still not enough for you, then the 40S can easily be combined with elements from our S 07 wardrobe system to make such spacious endless furniture that it won’t even fit on this screen.
