The POP-HUB is a temporary storage unit for urban logistics providing an energetic service. In this test project, Nils Holger Moormann, in collaboration with the Berlin platform OH Studio, has developed an experimental space to locally buffer furniture elements and to deliver to customers in a way that is service-focused and compatible with the city.
Free of congestion and dust. But with heart and soul.
An alternative to lorry-based logistics, the POP-HUB also explores the delivery of heavy and larger packages on a newly developed delivery bike by Weber Technik customised specifically for these requirements.
Backstage will become stage
We are not only there to deliver. But also to celebrate. Celebrate with us! On the 13th and 14th of September from 5pm. From all of the orders we receive in summer 2019 within Berlin, we shall select a small number depending on our route planning and packaging list. The orders shall be delivered personally by Axel Kufus and Nils Holger Moormann.
30 Years FNP
Designed and developed by Axel Kufus, produced and nurtured by Nils Holger Moormann the universal shelf system FNP is synonymous with minimal construction and maximum performance. FNP is short for land-use plan (Flächennutzungsplan) in full length and breadth. Because in addition to the optimal use of both raw materials at 93 percent and every available space, it was actually an urban-development land-use plan that initiated the shelf. What makes it the ideal roommate even after 30 years? FNP is not only clever, filigree, can handle loads, is stable, kind to resources, variable, easy to assemble and dismantle when moving and has lots of solution assistants such as boxes, lights or sliding doors, but has remained true to character. Which is down to the fact that the shelf system has only been cautiously elaborated and has been left as pure as it is. Even the shelf from the original year 1989 is still compatible with today’s system.
