A.B.C. Bookcase
A.B.C.
by Alberto Meda for Cappellini is a modular aluminum bookcase that can also define space as a double-sided partition. Uprights made from post-consumer recycled aluminum support extruded shelves, with wall-to-floor or floor-to-ceiling fixing. Natural anodized, black, champagne and red finishes give the system distinct expressions; individual shelves can also mount directly to a wall.
Every detail, considered.
