Key: Photos and Pricing


With the preproduction pieces only being finished a couple days before the CO-DESIGN show, I haven't been able to properly photograph them, but I did take a few shots tonight at the show. Shown are all three sizes (short, medium, and tall), and three of the available door colors. Announced retail prices are as follows (without doors):

Short: $499
Medium: $549
Tall: $599
Set of sliding doors: $149

Key uses sustainably harvested Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certified maple veneer plywood with low formaldehyde content (exceeds European E1 standard) and a low VOC finish. The doors are powdercoated, which is a VOC-free process. And of course, Key is made right here in Denver, CO.

A full order and configuration page will be coming in the next several days is available here. And if you're in Denver, orders can be taken by P Design Gallery, until at least August 25th.

Changes coming before production: a stabilizer bar at the bottom of the tall version (to better tie the sides together), tighter key fit, some sort of cord passthrough hole in the back, and the ability to stack short modules onto the medium or tall base.

Options coming soon: a padded cushion to convert the low or medium module into a bench (would make great shoe storage), an adjustable internal shelf (for stacking AV components or CDs/DVDs), a door choice that allows IR remote control signals to pass through (probably either polycarbonate, glass, or perforated metal).

Scott,

These are truly beautiful aesthetically and in their pure simple design. You should be proud of yourself. I will have to buy myself one.

Six hundred dollars without doors?

Yeah, good luck with that.

Thanks for the comment. Actually, it's five hundred for the basic module. I think the pricing compares very well with comparable products from Blu Dot, Offi, or DWR. And don't forget those products' lack of sustainable materials, low VOC finishes, etc.
