Description
7seas® AVENELLE™ — The Beauty of Keeping.
Storage becomes part of the room with AVENELLE™, the 7seas® collection created around a simple idea: the things we keep deserve a beautiful place of their own.
Handmade piece by piece, AVENELLE™ brings together decorative form and everyday function through considered materials, distinctive detailing and designs intended to live comfortably within the home.
FABULEN™ — An Illustrated Story in Storage.
FABULEN™ brings a more imaginative expression to AVENELLE™, transforming concealed storage into the form of an illustrated decorative book.
A large stylised elephant forms the centrepiece of the design, rendered in a gentle palette of soft grey and white. Its sweeping silhouette extends across the cover, accompanied by simplified leaves and botanical forms in muted green and warm yellow, with small dark accents bringing definition to the composition.
Against the pale neutral ground, the restrained palette gives the illustration clarity without making the piece visually overwhelming.
The book-form construction is fundamental to FABULEN™’s character. Its rounded spine side, broad cover proportions and distinctive page-effect edge work together to create the appearance of a substantial illustrated volume when the piece is closed.
Rather than simply decorating a conventional box, FABULEN™ makes the appearance of a book part of the storage itself—an object designed to invite a second look before revealing its practical purpose.
Book Form. Concealed Storage.
FABULEN™ measures 30 × 21 × 6 cm, giving it the broad proportions and relatively slim profile of a substantial decorative volume.
Along the exposed edge, closely spaced horizontal detailing creates the visual impression of layered pages. Combined with the illustrated cover and book-like proportions, this feature strengthens the design’s distinctive visual identity from different viewing angles.
Inside, the book-form structure provides discreet storage for smaller belongings while allowing the closed piece to remain comfortably on display.
Position FABULEN™ flat on shelving, a console, dressing table or coffee table, incorporate it amongst books and decorative accessories, or allow its illustrated cover to become a feature within a considered arrangement.
It is this relationship between appearance and purpose that makes FABULEN™ distinctive: useful storage presented through the visual language of an illustrated book.
Handmade, Piece by Piece
Every FABULEN™ storage book is fully handmade, with the production process carried out by hand from cutting through assembly.
An MDF structure provides the underlying form, while the exterior is finished in faux leather and the interior in non-woven fabric.
Its character comes from the complete composition rather than a separate applied ornament—the structured book form, softly illustrated exterior and page-effect edge working together to create one coherent decorative object.
The result is storage with an element of discovery: practical in purpose, but deliberately unexpected in presentation.
The Beauty of Keeping.
AVENELLE™ was created for the objects that help bring order to a home while contributing something beautiful of their own.
FABULEN™ expresses that philosophy through imaginative illustration and book-inspired form, giving smaller belongings a discreet place of their own within an object that contributes character to its surroundings.
Handmade. Beautifully considered. Made for the things you keep.
