Chest and bench CMB-5143

When you think of Berlin, you usually think of a yellow splash of color. More precisely: one in traffic yellow or RAL 1023, which has been the color of the capital's buses, trains and subways since 1994. Ever since typographer and graphic designer Erik Spiekermann took on the corporate design of Berlin's public transport company and proposed and standardized this color in addition to fonts and signs. With success. After the first train of line 50 with vehicle number 5143 left the Niederschönhausen depot in the new color on January 31, 1994, all other BVG vehicles were gradually ordered in traffic yellow. Today, thousands of Berlin buses, streetcars and subway trains are on the move in the uniform design. They are a landmark and part of the city's visual identity, unmistakable and unmistakable. For the BVG, this is a key factor in its image. The message: wherever a yellow vehicle stops, you can get on board. And the Berliners? They embraced the new color wholeheartedly. Sun yellow - that's what they affectionately called it. The then new livery is also a success story of reunification: It brought the transport companies from East and West together.In keeping with the 30th anniversary of the introduction of the color at BVG, our Truhe CMB is now available in traffic yellow. Congratulations from the bottom of our hearts!

To be used as a chest and bench - CMB is the contemporary interpretation of one of the oldest types of furniture. Chests of various types have served as a means of storage and transportation since time immemorial. CMB is a worthy representative of this product genre. It fulfills a variety of functions in the home, office and living area. Thus, in the bedroom it is storage space for bed linen, woolen blanket and winter clothes in summer. In the hallway, it serves as a place for the stack of newspapers, or for storing rainwear and bicycle helmets, but there is also room for beverage crates (due to the different formats of beverage crates, the inner dimensions of CMB must be taken into account here). Thanks to the appropriate height dimension, it also fulfills its role as a seat for two people - or for three little ones - at the kitchen table or in the hallway. Transporting CMB is easy, because the fixed castors mounted on one end and the handles on the sides allow easy maneuvering even when loaded. The contents are easily accessible via the two linoleum-covered and completely removable wooden lids. We like the industrial charm of this serviceable furniture.
