Opening night party for a major installation celebrating two masterworks of late 20th century Modernism, the 606 Universal Shelving System (1960) and the 620 Chair Program (1962) designed by Dieter Rams for Vitsoe.
Wide, from the back of the gallery
620 Chair under Tom Dixon lamp
Constantin Boym in fetching green shirt
Ugly, inefficient, depressing chaos
Dieter, Murray and Mark look to the future
Dieter through Dieter
Even at floor level, the 606 is impressively engineered

Wide, from the front of the gallery
Wide, from the middle of the gallery
The back wall is wood and so are the books
A sea of drinkers enjoying shelving
A couple drinks while enjoying the de Lucchi models
Woman in white reads the text
Ben and Franklin, enjoying a moment of hilarity
