If memory serves, my first experience with that ubiquitous storage apparatus called the metal filing cabinet was during my second year in college, at which time I realized that, yes, it was extraordinarily functional, but also extraordinarily ugly. My pedestrian solution was to decorate it with pulp-magazine style magnets, but manufacturer JG Group has a more enlightened approach: their collection of BMT Filing cabinets and Storage Pedestals banish that gunmetal gray in favor of more vibrant hues.

JG Group’s BMT Filing Cabinets Make Function First and Fun a Close Second

The collection of filing cabinets takes the bold step of vivid coloration. Each of JG Group’s two- or three-drawer models is bright as the sun. And that holds whether the color in question is tangerine orange, apple green, sky blue, or alabaster white.

The great appeal of these filing cabinets and personal storage lockers partly resides in the fantastically fun finishes, and partly in their slim, sleek, and minimalist construction. The storage units come in various incarnations: three drawers, one drawer + one filing cabinet, or one large personal storage locker.

The combination of multiple styles and unusual coloration gives these traditionally pragmatic storage devices a good dose of aesthetic appeal, which is just the ticket to liven up that dreary old office space.
