Pagoda is a storage cabinet inspired by the form of Buddhist pagodas. Each level carries an eave, and the cabinet opens by rotation instead of by pulling drawers. The user grasps an eave and turns the level around an axis at the back, which opens more storage area within the same footprint. The lowest level is a traditional drawer 15 centimeters high, and this drawer keeps the center of gravity low and stable. Four universal wheels allow the cabinet to be moved easily. The body is made of red zebrawood.
