The Double Pyramid is an architectural shelving unit co-designed by Wendy Andreu and Bram Vanderbeke, built entirely from flat, laser-cut aluminium sheets.
Its form consists of two multi-tiered vertical towers connected by horizontal shelves, creating an open, airy structure of varied compartment sizes. The interlocking panel system holds everything together without a single screw, rivet, or weld, making the piece as easy to take apart as to assemble. The brushed silver-grey finish gives the metal a light, industrial quality that reads well against both pale and dark walls.
The construction logic here is the design. Flat sheets slot into each other to produce a three-dimensional object with genuine structural integrity and visual coherence. This approach was conceived as the first iteration of a broader system, adaptable to other shapes, materials, and functions. The Double Pyramid demonstrates what the method can do at its most refined.
Part of the Inside Out collection, this piece sits at the intersection of modular design thinking and precision fabrication, reflecting Wendy Andreu's consistent interest in making the internal logic of an object its most legible quality.

About
Wendy Andreu
Wendy Andreu is a craft designer who aims to communicate through the materials she is using. By experimenting with them, she finds surprising outcomes that can be translated into functional design proposals. She is able to execute any idea that comes to her mind in order to check the potential of it. She likes to think of the bridges between matter, people and space in an open way. In her research, the context has as much importance as the concept, without forgetting the quality of the making and the aesthetic of the pieces.
Wendy Andreu won the Public Prize of the Accessory competition at the Villa Noailles in Hyères (2017) and won the Dorothy Waxman Textile Prize in New-York City (2017). In 2018, she got a grant from the Stimulerings Fund (NL) in order to develop her project Regen. In 2020, she was one of the Rising Talent France during Maison et Objet January edition. She is part of AD 100 France 2024.
She is currently working in Paris XIX where she is developing experimental work as well as commissioned projects for public and private clients.
