1964-2024: 60 years aluminium shelf
At Lehni, the year 2024 will be marked by the 60th anniversary of Andreas Christen's legendary aluminium shelf. The shelf was created for the 1964 Expo in Lausanne with the help of Max Bill and was subsequently added to Lehni's product range. Today, it is one of the most important classics of Swiss furniture design.
Reason enough to honour the design icon with various events and activities. Keep up to date via the Lehni newsletter and Instagram.
