This Wickedly Awesome 'Evolution Door' Is The Key To Unlocking Your Mind Today
Sliding, rotating, automatic, hinged. We thought we had a pretty firm grasp on the types of doors that exist in the world. How wrong we were.
This completely new kind of door, created by Austrian designer Klemens Torggler, is currently mesmerizing the Internet and forever changing the way we look at this everyday structure
The 4-panel door opens and closes elegantly as though it’s made of pieces of paper and it's aptly named as the "Evolution Door"
The door has "soft edges" (for wayward fingers) and is "absolutely safe." The artist describs his invention as a "flip-panel door."
Torggler has a few variations on this door, one with the origami-esque triangles that fold out to help the door move, and another system with rods that rotate two square panels.

All his doors are "based on rotating squares," his website reads, adding: "The special construction makes it possible to move the door sideways without the use of tracks. This technical trick opens up new applications for the door."
