Did you ever have to move from flat to flat, carrying your furniture with you?

Policnik is a shelves system, that can be easily constructed in just a few minutes. It consists of two different wooden elements, which are put together into a wooden 'ladder' without any tools and screws.
The height of the Policnik is adjustable by the detail (height adjustable screw-pedestal) at the bottom and the top part of wooden columns, which makes it perfect to use and move between any ceiling heights.
With the stuff on its' shelves it becomes a personal piece of furniture.
The production of only two different elements (vertical column and horizontal shelve) is very simple and can be easily done by local carpenters.
