NEO 

Do you think outside the box? So does NEO. Individuality comes as standard: 

NEO is adaptable to any living space, compatible with every lifestyle, 

innovative and sophisticated, offering uncomplicated shapes and surprising 

details. 

Clean-cut modular units in different widths, heights and depths can be freestanding, 

stacked or suspended and, complemented by a side panel system 

as well as wall panels, form the basis of this range. Typical hülsta front 

design features, such as doors, flaps or drawers can be fitted. All of the 

fronts are handle-less and include manual or innovative, electronic push-toopen 

technology in order to underline the puristic character of NEO. 

The architecture provides a light-hearted feel or is intentionally compact and 

storage-oriented. Horizontal, vertical or offset structures create new images: 

Ultra-low pedestals support tall, slim column units, distinctive wall-mounted 

shelves become expressive design features. Individually designed single 

units with contrasting front finishes provide a dramatic visual impact. Open 

units up to 105.6 cm high offer functional room divider solutions: Symmetrical, 

identical on both sides or intentionally contrasting – the fronts can be 

designed to suit individual tastes. 

Communication at any time and any place, whether for professional or private 

purposes: Constant information flow and interaction are generally taken 

for granted. NEO is designed to include an intelligent integration of modern 

communication tools and extensive media equipment. It delivers an innovative 

combination of clean lines with limitless individuality and a timeless 

character with state-of-the-art technology. 

The sound panel with excellent HiFi sound offers a long-awaited solution to 

discreetly integrate speakers: It acts as a docking station for mini HiFis, 

iPods or PCs; the sound is provided by two tweeters on the upper edge of 

the panel. Additional connectors allow further audio sources to be added, a 

USB port offers a video outlet. The device can also be controlled via Bluetooth. 

An innovative, slimline bracket is available for the integration of flat 

screens. It can be swivelled to any position. 

A second media unit, developed in cooperation with Loewe AG, provides a 

special shelf to support a subwoofer, offering an outstanding base sound. 

The fronts are covered with fabric. The sound panel as well as the media unit 

provide intelligent cable management behind easily removable, magnetically 

fixed panels. 



3|13

In addition to “communication” units, NEO offers clever components, which 

keep things neat and tidy and can be easily integrated into drawers. We have 

taken into account that living and dining areas increasingly merge into one 

and have added accessories including stylish cutlery and plate inserts, bottle 

holders as well as practical utensil drawers. High-quality materials such as 

wool felt and stainless steel underline the sophisticated design. 

NEO is available in core walnut, natural oak and amber tree, offering harmonious 

combinations with white, grey and cocoa lacquer. High-gloss lacquers 

or lacquered glass surfaces in the same colours create striking accents. 

TAMETA 

A highly versatile single unit range offering a lighthearted, storage-oriented 

yet elegant architecture. TAMETA is based on single units such as sideboards or 

glass cabinets, cubist units, which can be suspended or placed together and shelving 

structures, which can be individually equipped with functional units. Different raster 

heights and unit widths and especially the choice of surfaces with a “mix-and-match” 

principle provide individual design solutions. 

Bright, vibrant light brown ash, calm core walnut as well as elegant white and sand 

lacquers are the main surfaces, whilst fronts are also available in white sand and 

black lacquered glass. Versatile combinations of different materials and colours for 

carcase and fronts provide beautiful tone-on-tone ensembles, smooth nucances 

featuring different materials or strong contrasts. The use of different materials and 

colours is particularly striking when used with differing raster heights. The height of a 

lowboard, for instance, may be in line with drawer fronts in a contrasting colour. 

Asymmetric cut-out glass sections in a cabinet match the height of the suspended 

unit next to it to continue an imaginary line. 

Highlights of the versatile range are the sideboards – on elegant arched supports or 

down to the floor – and a suspended unit with extravagant, angled glass flaps, which 

provide space for decorative displays. These can be optionally lit by a light source 

that offers subtle lighting for the room. 

Spacious shelving units with elegant, handle-less sliding doors ensure a perfect 

solution for TV and HiFi units, when you don’t want to see them. Pull-out DVD compartments 

provide intelligent storage. For innovative technology, TAMETA offers 

different media panels featuring an ultra-slim flat screen bracket or ambient background 

lighting. A puristic glass bonnet for lowboards can be used to support a freestanding 

TV-unit. 



4|13

TAMETA includes a wide choice of practical and functional units, which can be 

planned to suit individual requirements. They include glass holders and cutlery inserts, 

wine racks and felt trays as well as CD/DVD inserts and IR-repeater sets to 

control peripheral equipment. 

Lighting, mainly indirect or ambient, plays an increasingly important role for furniture. 

Energy-efficient LEDs can be planned inside glass cabinets, suspended units and 

sideboards, below shelves and behind media units. TAMETA units are operated by 

TipTronic, i.e. by lightly touching an unobtrusive switch, via remote control or optionally 

for glass cabinets using the innovative MagicTronic: A sensor, which is integrated 

within the carcase, reacts to a light touch of the hand. 

Further innovative TAMETA functionalities include drawers behind sliding doors or in 

open shelving combinations, which feature a push-to-open technology. All drawers 

are fitted with the self-closing mechanism SoftFlow and doors with SilentStop door 

catches. The new EverFinish surface technology ensures high resistance to everyday 

use and guarantees lasting beauty. 

TAMETA’s design underlines, yet does not over-emphasize, its functionality and use. 

A versatile range with a timeless character. 

ET 1700 

A perfect dining space. If required, the new ET 1700 changes its size and 

functionality, becoming the centre of enjoyment, companionship and relaxation. 

An intelligent mechanism allows spontaneous changeability. 

The unpretentious, classically rectangular, split table top can be moved. 

Supported by a patented extension mechanism, the table changes its size, 

both in length as well as in width. Empty spaces are filled with extension 

leaves, creating an opening in the centre that can be equipped with various 

functional accessories. 

Practical yet stylish inserts, for instance, make it easy to prepare small 

dishes at the table. They include a granite top for hot dishes. Openings, 

which conceal the cables below the table top, also allow using it for a 

Raclette etc. The electric glass field or – as a cosy alternative – a 

stainless steel insert for tealights create a hotplate. The double-sided 

stainless steel cooler keeps drinks at the right temperature. A solid 

beech cutting board and trays with porcelain or Corian bowls are 

perfect for preparing and serving. 



5|13

A table fire providing ambient lighting adds a lovely finishing touch to the 

evening. Liquid fuel in a stainless steel box with glass walls, which sits in the 

functional opening of the ET 1700, provides a controlled, soot- and residuefree 

flame. A double-walled combustion chamber, safety glass, ignition and 

refill points ensure a secure view of the beautiful flames. 

The ET 1700 is available in core walnut, natural oak and amber tree plus in 

white lacquer. To create subtle or contrasting colour combinations, the table 

top is also available in grey and cocoa lacquer. 

ELUMO II 

The relaunch of the popular ELUMO II bedroom range, featuring distinctive recesses 

in the wardrobe, chests and consoles, is characterised by an even more sophisticated 

design: Luxurious leather panels on the wardrobe fronts, in the attractive 

recesses, as upholstery on the bed frame and the elaborate headboards give 

ELUMO II a new, extravagant touch. 

The bed, available in individual combinations of different headboards and bed frames 

in core walnut, white lacquer or precious white, sand, nougat or black leather, is the 

focal point of the range. The 42.2 cm high bed unit featuring a simplistic, cubist 

design leaves the headboard to take centre stage. The headboard is available as a 

dynamic, curved “sail” in wood or lacquer, or as a leather panel headboard with 

structured double seams and beautifully crafted details. It comes in 95 cm and 120 

cm heights or as a functional, individually adjustable high-class leather headboard. 

All versions with leather headboard are available as freestanding beds. 

Different ancillary units not only offer storage but also interesting design possibilities. 

The consoles and chests in different widths and heights feature attractive recesses 

and are also available with leather accents or LED lighting. The lighting is optionally 

available as an innovative RunLight. This version becomes brighter with movement. 

An interesting chest version shows a decorative cut-out glass section as a cover. The 

leather-lined drawer underneath becomes a perfect showcase. A chest of drawers 

without recess opening is also possible. 

The endless add-on wardrobe system offers 50 cm or 100 cm wide hinged door 

units. 80 cm or 100 cm wide intermediary units with recess can add a stunning 

accent. Fronts are available in core walnut or white lacquer, mirrored or with luxurious 

leather panels, which are available in four colours and are integrated in the lower 

section of the wardrobe doors. The carefully crafted leather units with beautiful decorative 

seams can be ordered to match the wood or lacquer or to create a striking 



6|13

contrast. A generous passe-partout and LED surface-mounted lights perfectly finish 

off the design. Wardrobe interiors are white lacquered and can be fitted with plenty of 

functional units* such as shirt or linen shelves, trouser holders etc. A TV-panel, optionally 

with three-dimensionally adjustable flat screen bracket, is additionally available 

for the intermediary unit. 

*Please refer to the following MULTI-FORMA II description for more details. 

MULTI-FORMA II 

Unlimited possibilities 

MULTI-FORMA is a classic among intelligent wardrobe systems for bedrooms. A 

convincing concept in every respect: Front design, wardrobe interiors and dimensions 

offer incredible variability. The current addtions to the system, which include 

walk-in wardrobes and recess solutions as well as innovative design features, create 

even more design possibilities. 

The endless add-on principle, corner solutions, height reductions and rear cuts allow 

individual adaptation to challenging room situations up to a new extravagant 337.8 

cm height. In this context, individual height, width and depth reductions without extra 

charge are an attractive offer. 

MULTI-FORMA II is a universal wardrobe system that effortlessly matches all of the 

hülsta bedroom ranges and almost any interior design style. 

Flexibility at its best 

MULTI-FORMA II is based on a three-part concept: Hinged and folding door wardrobes, 

sliding door wardrobes and the new room and recess system. Each of these 

three systems offers special features in terms of design, front and surface finishes as 

well as further design possibilities such as the individual mix of front and carcase 

versions. All three systems are available with bespoke custom detailing and various 

wardrobe interiors. 

Hinged and folding doors 

These MULTI-FORMA II classics are available in five versions, depending upon 

design, in matt lacquer, high gloss and wood veneer or a combination thereof. 

In addition to a plain, mono-chrome door design, the spectrum also includes a 

version with a crafted panel, which runs as a “belt” across the lower section of the 



7|13

doors. Contrasting colour or material combinations, subtle nuances and tone-on-tone 

are all feasible. 

Filigree wood or lacquer applications divide the doors of the third design 

version into symmetrical areas. Version 4 is characterised by a clear, panel door 

design with protruding frames and recessed infill panels. 

As part of the fifth door design, a bentwood panel is both a design feature and 

functional unit: The wood panel runs across the centre of the door, can be used as a 

door handle at the respective position before nestling back into the surface of the 

door. 

The hinged and folding door concept offers different intermediary units that add further 

interesting design features as well as exciting functional or optical highlights: 

They include an elegant glass panel, an architectural, protruding unit with 

glass cabinet covering the entire wardrobe height, a folding door with an integrated, 

square display, a sophisticated, remote-controlled blind with 

extravagant, lacquered glass slats, a unit with a moveable mirror and last but not 

least a unit with spacious drawers and a vertical sliding door. 

A “handle shop” with a wide choice of different handle designs, ranging from simplistic 

to classic, complement the range. 

Sliding doors 

The sliding door concept includes four door designs: The plain mono-chrome door 

design, accents provided by the wide, crafted panel or the slim bars as well as the 

cross division of doors with different colours and materials on upper and lower sections. 

The highlight is an extravagant-three-door wardrobe unit, whose central sliding 

door is designed as a protruding slat unit, the idea coming from modern architecture. 

The choice of materials and colours, which is available for all three basic MULTI- 

FORMA II concepts, includes vibrant or subtle veneers such as structured beech, 

light brown ash, core walnut, oak mocca and cherry wood gold. Matt lacquered surfaces 

are available in white, sand, grey and cocoa, high-gloss surfaces in pure white, 

white, sand and cocoa. 

Room system 

The separation (in design/planning terms) of carcase and front as well as the sophisticated 

sliding door technology allow walk-in wardrobe solutions. These can be 

manufactured to suit individual requirements. From a small recess solution, which 

could be used as a separate shoe cupboard or as a functional room, to a generous 



8|13

dressing room – everything is possible whilst retaining all of the design features of 

the wardrobe system as well as the possibility to deliver bespoke customer detailing 

upon request. 

The room/recess system includes a special functional “decorative island”, offering 

storage in six spacious drawers and featuring an elegant glass top plus a comfortable 

integrated leather bench. 

Interiors 

In order to match the outer look of the wardrobe, the exclusive wardrobe interiors are 

optionally available in white lacquer or a neutral light or dark veneer. Functional units 

allow perfect organisation. They include drawers with wooden or glass fronts as well 

as dividers for ties, clothes and more, drawers for shoes, elements with fabric box 

drawers or clothes lifts. Useful accessories such as clothes protectors or elegant 

storage boxes perfectly complement the MULTI-FORMA II range. 

Technical features 

Cable-less LED shelf lighting and a lit shelf that provide balanced lighting for the carcases 

are part of the new lighting solutions. Vertical light fillets have been developed 

for the room system. They offer functional and glare-free light to either side and also 

create a beautiful lighting effect. 

In addition to the known soft-closing technologies such as hülsta-SoftFlow for drawers 

or hülsta-SilentStop for hinged and folding doors, a new invisible and almost 

silent closing mechanism for sliding door wardrobes is also available. Luxurious, 

electronically aided opening for sliding doors is another option. 

VENERO II 

Comfort at the highest level for people, who have defined their lifestyle: 

carefully selected materials and intelligent functionality and comfort, which 

pre-empt the demands of the future, are the highlights of this range. 

The current relaunch has mainly focused on the bed. In addition to even 

more comfortable bed heights, practical and easily accessible storage as 

well as innovative lighting units have been developed. Luxuriously crafted 

details such as leather upholstery sections and accent colours are distinctive 

new features of the range. 

VENERO II now offers three bed versions: a bed-on-legs in 48 cm comfort 

height with (optional) bed side lighting, a 45.5 cm compact bed with a large 



9|13

linen box as well as a luxury bed in a comfortable 53 cm height. The luxury 

bed includes two drawers on each side, which offer ample storage space. 

All three versions are optionally available with a high footboard that offers a 

nice and cosy look. If required, an upholstered leather section highlights the 

footboard. Curved headboards with an integrated storage compartment and 

lighting on both sides, providing orientation at night without disturbing the 

partner, are also optionally available. 

VENERO II bed consoles, which match the different bed heights, are available 

as single units, with panels, with simple drawers or with a practical 

swing-out tray. The LED-lighting on the optional shelves and the automatic 

interior drawer lighting are further innovations. The new ancillary units include 

beautiful angled shelves – optionally with indirect lighting – a delicate 

suspended unit and an elegant dressing table with lit folding mirror, a utensils 

compartment and two drawers. 

An extravagant intermediary unit with an innovative Venetian blind has been 

added to the popular endless add-on wardrobe concept, which also includes 

corner solutions. The blind, which can be operated by remote control, consists 

of lacquered or veneered glass slats that can be elegantly raised. 

The new VENERO II includes finishes such as classic white lacquer, elegant 

cherrywood gold and vibrant light brown ash. Selected units are available in 

amber wood or grey and cocoa lacquer to add stunning accents.
