DYNAMIC ELEGANCE
A design bookcase in solid wood, indisputable example of function simplified through an interplay of shapes that narrate an elegant, essential and well laid-out set of principles typical of designs by Vico Magistretti.
1977
Designed by Vico Magistretti, this bookcase with its simple, clean-cut lines was the outcome of a detailed analysis of the classic model featuring side supports and shelves. This piece is an icon of design, yet also a veritable invention in terms of construction: the diagonal bracing struts become the support structure, and house the shelves, eliminating the need for side supports. Putting the focus on the hinges and the six shelves, the structure, which can be folded away, can also be used as a room-divider. Its elegant and primary aesthetic, timeless and easy to read, has made the Nuvola Rossa an undisputed design icon since 1977. It has been imitated several times as an example of simplified function achieved via an interplay of shapes.
Magistretti designed this folding bookcase with its clean, modern lines that can be used on a wall or as a room divider, freely combining more than one unit, depending on the space available.
The bookcase structure folds away to practically nothing, converting the diagonals into support pieces that eliminate the side pieces entirely and play up the role of the hinges in adding flair to a timeless iconic design.
