About TEEbooks
The concept
TEEbooks. Everything in its place.
TEEbooks,
Where do you live, who are you?
Nothing more.
Your thoughts, your feelings, your story.
Your life.
Your walls say a lot about you: books, songs, photos, objects.
TEEbooks accompanies you, supports you and helps you.
You can count on TEEbooks.
Useful idea, simple object like a TEE.
Pure functionality and functional purity.
Simple and minimal design for an object that cleverly hides its strength and importance.
It fulfils its purpose perfectly and efficiently, but does not seek to attract attention, for a pure and light furnishing.
Exactly like a golf tee, this small T-shaped support on which the ball rests.
It must be put deep into the ground until it becomes almost invisible.
But its presence is essential.
Only its purpose is crucial. The tee only exists to hit the ball.

Their job is to cut the metal, shape it and paint it.
