System Cado Cabinet
With the launch of System Cado in 1960, the Danish designer Poul Cadovius expanded his impressive shelving universe, which included the iconic Royal System from 1948 and the award-winning System Ultra from 1957. All three systems were based on the same wall-hung design principle. While Royal System and System Ultra were made with hangers in brass or steel, the System Cado was developed with wooden brackets, making it Poul Cadovius' first shelving system crafted entirely in wood.
The wall-mounted shelving system comes in various wood types and comprises rails, shelves with wooden brackets and different cabinets. The frame of the cabinets has a bevelled edge, which adds a distinctive lightness to the system.
