The acrylic is graded across the whole piece: strong red at one end, warming through to amber at the other, so no two bays are quite the same colour and the run carries one continuous journey instead of a grid of coloured panels. Every box is open front and back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eEighteen Boxes Carrying One Colour Journey\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEighteen boxes mean a great many panels, and each one has to come from the right place in the graded stock. The horizontal shelves are the problem the vertical divisions are not: a shelf crosses several bays and therefore several stages of the grade at once, so it has to be cut from a length of stock that grades at the same rate as the piece it is joining. Cut a shelf from the wrong part of the sheet and it disagrees with the verticals it meets, which shows as a visible seam across the whole unit. Because every box is open front and back, each panel is read against the colour of the ones behind it, and the depth of colour compounds through the piece. Every unit grades differently.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLong and of middling height, this is a wall piece: a room divider that does not close a room, a run along the back of a study, or the long wall of an office where storage should not read as storage. The grade is the reason to keep the wall behind it plain. Open boxes mean whatever goes in them is seen through coloured material from every side, so books and boxes read as blocks of tone rather than as their own colours, which is worth planning for. Nothing should crowd either end, or the sweep loses its start and finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eBay Count, Grade Route and Assembly in Sequence\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrder a standard piece and it takes 3–4 weeks; order it bespoke and it takes 5–6. Bay count and box proportion can both be changed, and the unit is offered in other lengths and heights. The grade can be reversed, run vertically, or drawn between two other colours from the same stock, and a single flat colour is available. Backs can be closed where the contents should not be seen through. Delivery is flat and in sequence: the panels are numbered as they are cut and bonded on arrival in that order, because the grade only stays continuous if the panels go back where they came from. Two people are wanted for the assembly, and a unit this size is not a quick job. The panels are a one-person carry. Our main studios are in the UK (Birmingham) and Dubai, with additional global workshops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEighteen boxes carrying one colour journey belong with our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/acrylic-sculptures\"\u003eacrylic sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e; six bays graded red to amber lead to our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/geometric-sculptures\"\u003egeometric sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e, and storage that does not read as storage joins our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/indoor-sculptures\"\u003eindoor sculptures\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e120cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e200cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDepth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGraded Red to Amber Cast Acrylic\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Giant Sculptures","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54003984662875,"sku":"Y108","price":8368.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/3383\/2027\/files\/Y108.jpg?v=1790884968","url":"https:\/\/giant-sculptures.com\/products\/red-to-amber-graded-six-bay-acrylic-shelving-unit-200cm","provider":"Giant Sculptures","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
