Bookcase Totem - Cabinet of CuriositiesThe modular metal bookcase Totem features asymmetrical, angular sides that create a striking effect for storage and display. This piece can be considered a Cabinet of Curiosities, with endless options for customisation.The bookcase units can be floor-standing, wall-mounted, or arranged as a room divider. They can be stacked vertically or horizontally, in symmetrical arrangements or more creative, asymmetrical patterns. Designer Nicolette de Waart states, “Bookcases have evolved from simply storing books to reflecting who people are and showcasing the special items in their lives. I wanted to combine the function of a bookcase with the concept of a cabinet of curiosities. The design allows individuals to mix and match the display units, encouraging creativity in the process.”After extensive prototyping and research, Nicolette expresses satisfaction with the contrasts found in this product, which is handcrafted in collaboration with highly skilled artisans. The shape is both functional and elegant, surprising with its individuality and angled sides. It is made from high-quality, semi-matt, powder-coated sheet metal, which provides a delicate finish that contrasts beautifully with its durable, industrial origins.You can create your ideal design by choosing from various colours and configurations.
