The use of natural or stained wood panels for the structure gives this range of bookcases a simple, yet sculptural air. Simplicity expressed through clean and uncluttered lines, evoking traditional and religious furniture that favours function over ornamentation. This high-quality walnut bookcase comes in different heights and widths and is available in a variety of finishes: natural, stained plum, off-white or dark green. Despite its simple and austere look, this collection designed and developed during the pandemic radiates a certain sense of tranquility and serenity. It is an invitation to focus on what truly matters, on building sincere relationships.
