Bachus Wine Rack by Marcel Wanders

01.31.bachus2.jpg

This beautiful matte grey Bachus wine rack is designed by Marcel Wanders (yes, Bachus, not Bacchus). We love its soft, roundy edges and simple peg rack design...

Wanders designed the rack for Slide Design of Italy. We don't really get the bunny in the ad campaign, but we certainly don't object to the cute furball or the minimalist design of the wine rack. Via: Elit Alice.

brought a tear to the eye to see my childhood pet, smoky, in all his fluffy glory...

LOL...that bunny is adorable. I was more focused on him/her than the actual wine rack!

I think the bunny steals the show- I barely looked at the wine rack! Look how soft and fluffy he is...

I agree. Without that adorable bunny these photos would be bo-ring.

And apparently grown ups say bunny a lot, too.

Sweet, sweet bunny! Give it here for a hug.

The sweet bunny's soulful eyes are meant to distract us from the reality that the wine rack looks like the innards of an iron maiden or maybe a mutant Lego.

There are very few options for modern wine storage, so like the style or not, I am guessing these a welcome addition to the very shallow pool.

Not sure I understand they didn't call it Bacchus, the Greek god of wine and intoxication (well really Dionysus, those god stealing Romans changed is name to Bacchus); makes total sense for a wine rack.

it looks like a big lego, i'd rather have the bunny
