Yes, It’s Just A Door. Well, Until You See What It Does… Then It’s Downright Epic.

There are so many things in this world that are overly complicated. Your relationships, jobs and health can be a constant source of stress. As a result? Simplicity can be beautiful.

That’s a reason why this Austrian artist’s creation is so wonderful. Klemens Torggler created his Evolution Door as an extension of his practice, but I want one. Now. He took something as simple as a door, deconstructed it even further and created something incredible.

It is a 4-panel entryway that looks surprisingly like a normal door… until you touch it.

The door then collapses smoothly, folding like origami.

Then, it reforms on the other side of the doorway.

Klemens calls his beautiful system a “flip panel door” (Drehplattentür). It’s technically considered kinetic art and a prototype, so you wouldn’t be able to buy one for your home just yet (although I’m completely certain I would). Watch the video below to see it in action:
