Chongqing, China
Precision home of a flight instructor
For pilots, precision, safety, and the use of high-quality, durable materials are not just important—they are essential to performing their duties effectively. This is especially true for experienced flight instructor, Kang, who wanted to bring these values into his family’s home.
At cruising altitude, high above the clouds, Kang is accustomed to the highest level of functionality in the cockpit. When it came to furnishing his home, he chose the modular USM system. “My family and I want to feel comfortable and secure at home”, Kang explains.
"And my first encounter with USM was like a smooth, pleasant flight”.
It began with the staircase leading to the lower ground, where Kang needed a functional solution that could offer storage, handrails and housing two arcade gaming consoles - all with high design standards he values.
Kang discovered USM at the ITEM showroom, authorised sales partner in China. There, he truly experienced the flexible USM modular system, with its straightforward, iconic design immediately resonating with him.
“I felt a connection and realised that simplicity is good for the soul.”
Kang and ITEM developed a sophisticated design tailored to his needs and space. USM not only meets functional needs, but also creates a variety of possibilities to suit all lifestyles.
USM orange was chosen to create a relaxed and inviting atmosphere throughout the home. Kang was particularly impressed by the versatility - it can be a double-sided storage unit that extends like a wall while also serving as a stair handrail. USM is like a ‘magic box’, full of surprises!
Kang soon decided to use USM furniture in the living and dining rooms as well, creating a media cabinet and sideboard. The products' outstanding craftsmanship, innovative design, and durability easily convinced him.
Now, Kang is surrounded by the same precision, safety, and high-quality, durable materials at home as he is in the cockpit.
