The concrete hero

Meet Keven, a passionate skateboarder whose first tryst with the sport at the age of 12 began a lifetime of fun. The act of refining his skateboarding moves is a cathartic experience that provides a sense of release from the rigours of daily life.

As a salesperson at a skate shop, his love for the sport has only grown. Skateboards, decks, well-worn shoes, and his cherished possessions are all significant to him, and he needed an immersive space that would showcase everything as a testament to his journey.

A place his wheels can call home.

Enter the BOAXEL modular storage system. With its unrivalled ability to create customised combinations that fit Keven's needs and budget, the BOAXEL system promised to be the answer to his prayers. Adding shelves from the STUK series for his clothes and accessories, along with a TROTTEN storage stool to hold magazines and double as a seat, Keven quickly began building his dream storage space.

Keven employed KLYKET folding hooks to display his well-worn skateboards, NEREBY S-hooks, and FRAKTA luggage straps to hang his backpack and skateboards on the clothes rail, and even utilised a DRÖNJÖNS desk organiser to store his skateboard accessories and earphones.

Now, every time Keven gazes upon his skateboarding corner, he feels an electric rush of excitement and pride. A way to showcase his skateboarding journey from its humble beginnings to the present day is a testament to his hard work and unwavering commitment to the sport.
