The resulting piece of furniture, Regard, displays the functions to store, to show, and to hide. Its detachable construction holds its form through the inherent tension of the wood and the weight force of all combined parts. Each part is necessary to keep another part stable. The clothing rail, as the last inserted part, holds together the entire construction.

*Regard is a portmanteau play of words, combining the German words Regal (shelf, rack) and Garderobe (wardrobe) to form the French word Regard (a look or glance).
